ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FitTime5 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FitTime5 has 78 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of ErgoMinder's written reviews are positive against 72% of FitTime5's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ErgoMinder ships an update every 8 months, FitTime5 every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
