# Withings vs My Contractions

The clearest difference is review sentiment: My Contractions at 70% against Withings's 24%. My Contractions also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). Withings's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Withings sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and My Contractions sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 6 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Withings holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Withings has 369K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Withings's written reviews are positive against 70% of My Contractions's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Withings ships an update fortnightly, My Contractions every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
