Verdict
The clearest difference is price: OCD HELP at Free against Shockwave Therapy's $4.99. OCD HELP also leads on review sentiment (30% vs 0%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). Shockwave Therapy's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.1) and in-app purchases (none vs 18). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

OCD HELP is free to download; Shockwave Therapy costs $4.99 up front. OCD HELP sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month. Shockwave Therapy asks for nothing beyond the download.
Shockwave Therapy holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OCD HELP has 17 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Shockwave Therapy's written reviews are positive against 30% of OCD HELP's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Shockwave Therapy ships an update every 4 months, OCD HELP monthly. The most recent releases landed on June 5, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
