# Random Reminders vs Minder

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Minder at 100% against Random Reminders's 58%. Minder also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). Random Reminders's advantage is ratings volume (56 vs 3) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
