# Lyfta vs PUMPY

The clearest difference is ads: PUMPY at none against Lyfta's shown. Lyfta's advantage is ratings volume (7.2K vs 11) and chart position (#35 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lyfta sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and PUMPY sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. 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 Lyfta against 4.7 for PUMPY. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lyfta has 7.2K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
