# MIT Technology Review DE vs Manager

The clearest difference is rating: Manager at 4.5 against MIT Technology Review DE's 2.3. Manager also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 39%) and ratings volume (62 vs 6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MIT Technology Review DE sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Manager sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Manager holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Manager has 62 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of MIT Technology Review DE's written reviews are positive against 63% of Manager's.

MIT Technology Review DE ships an update every 3 months, Manager every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
