Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Nami at freemium against Sober's subscription. Nami also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks). Sober's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 8). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Sober sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Nami sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Nami holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sober has 1.3K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Sober ships an update every 6 weeks, Nami every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
