# RepCount vs WeLift

The clearest difference is ads: RepCount at none against WeLift's shown. RepCount also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 54) and rating (4.9 vs 4.5). WeLift's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RepCount sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and WeLift sells 4 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 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RepCount has 14K ratings behind it against 54, 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 82% of WeLift's.

RepCount ships an update weekly, WeLift every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
