# SelfQuest vs FitHub

The clearest difference is rating: FitHub at 4.8 against SelfQuest's 4.1. FitHub also leads on ratings volume (25K vs 490). SelfQuest's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (70% vs 39%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SelfQuest sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and FitHub sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FitHub holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FitHub has 25K ratings behind it against 490, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of SelfQuest's written reviews are positive against 39% of FitHub's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

SelfQuest ships an update every 4 days, FitHub fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
