# ULTIMEA vs LuvvJoy

The clearest difference is rating: ULTIMEA at 4.7 against LuvvJoy's 4.1. ULTIMEA also leads on ratings volume (850 vs 11). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ULTIMEA holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ULTIMEA has 850 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of ULTIMEA's written reviews are positive against 57% of LuvvJoy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
