Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Esquire Magazine US at free with in-app purchases against Women's Health UK's subscription. Esquire Magazine US also leads on ratings volume (1.4K vs 23) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). Women's Health UK's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and chart position (#31 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Esquire Magazine US sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Women's Health UK sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $32.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Women's Health UK holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Esquire Magazine US has 1.4K ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Esquire Magazine US's written reviews are positive against 13% of Women's Health UK's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Esquire Magazine US ships an update every 2 months, Women's Health UK every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
