# Workout Builder vs Sumyt

The clearest difference is rating: Sumyt at 5.0 against Workout Builder's 4.3. Sumyt also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and device support (3 vs 1). Workout Builder's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 1) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Workout Builder sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Sumyt sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sumyt holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Workout Builder has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of Workout Builder's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sumyt's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on July 26, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
