# 1 Second Everyday vs One Second Day

The clearest difference is update cadence: 1 Second Everyday at every 6 days against One Second Day's every 5 months. 1 Second Everyday also leads on ratings volume (48K vs 13) and chart position (#122 vs unranked). One Second Day's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 55%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1 Second Everyday sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and One Second Day sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for 1 Second Everyday against 4.7 for One Second Day. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1 Second Everyday has 48K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 55% of 1 Second Everyday's written reviews are positive against 80% of One Second Day's.

1 Second Everyday ships an update every 6 days, One Second Day every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
