# Jolt vs Rewired

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Jolt at 82% against Rewired's 45%. Rewired's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 106). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Jolt sells 27 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Rewired sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rewired holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rewired has 1.4K ratings behind it against 106, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Jolt's written reviews are positive against 45% of Rewired's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Jolt ships an update every 2 weeks, Rewired every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
