# Strongur vs RepCount

The clearest difference is rating: RepCount at 4.9 against Strongur's 3.9. RepCount also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ratings volume (13K vs 113). Strongur's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Strongur sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and RepCount sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RepCount holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RepCount has 13K ratings behind it against 113, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Strongur's written reviews are positive against 93% of RepCount's.

Strongur ships an update every 6 days, RepCount weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
