# RepCount vs Grey Matter Training

The clearest difference is ratings volume: RepCount at 13K against Grey Matter Training's 3. RepCount also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Grey Matter Training's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, 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 Grey Matter Training sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $399.99 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 — 4.9 for RepCount against 5.0 for Grey Matter Training. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RepCount has 13K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

RepCount ships an update every 2 weeks, Grey Matter Training monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and June 2, 2026 respectively.
