# MacroFactor Workouts vs Overload

The clearest difference is rating: MacroFactor Workouts at 4.8 against Overload's 4.2. MacroFactor Workouts also leads on ratings volume (4.4K vs 16) and chart position (#113 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MacroFactor Workouts sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and Overload sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MacroFactor Workouts holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MacroFactor Workouts has 4.4K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of MacroFactor Workouts's written reviews are positive against 80% of Overload's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MacroFactor Workouts ships an update every 10 days, Overload weekly. Both last shipped on September 30, 2026.
