ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Omi holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Omi has 132 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Omi's written reviews are positive against 86% of Ruune's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Omi ships an update daily, Ruune every 9 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
