# B&M vs Kettlebell Protocol

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Kettlebell Protocol at 100% against B&M's 65%. Kettlebell Protocol also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). B&M's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (58 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. B&M sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Kettlebell Protocol sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kettlebell Protocol holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: B&M has 58 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 65% of B&M's written reviews are positive against 100% of Kettlebell Protocol's.

B&M ships an update every 4 days, Kettlebell Protocol fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
