# RepCount vs EVOLUTION 3

The clearest difference is monetization model: RepCount at freemium against EVOLUTION 3's subscription. RepCount also leads on ratings volume (13K vs 238) and review sentiment (93% vs 76%). EVOLUTION 3's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RepCount sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and EVOLUTION 3 sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RepCount holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RepCount has 13K ratings behind it against 238, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 93% of RepCount's written reviews are positive against 76% of EVOLUTION 3's.

RepCount ships an update every 2 weeks, EVOLUTION 3 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
