# Wrist RSS vs WristLab

The clearest difference is rating: WristLab at 5.0 against Wrist RSS's 3.9. WristLab also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium). Wrist RSS's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wrist RSS sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and WristLab sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WristLab holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wrist RSS has 14 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
