Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: The Mindfulness App at fortnightly against 1 Better's every 4 months. The Mindfulness App also leads on ratings volume (7.6K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). 1 Better's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 76%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. The Mindfulness App sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and 1 Better sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
1 Better holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Mindfulness App has 7.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 76% of The Mindfulness App's written reviews are positive against 100% of 1 Better's.
The Mindfulness App ships an update fortnightly, 1 Better every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
