# Coherence vs Breathe On

The clearest difference is monetization model: Breathe On at free with in-app purchases against Coherence's subscription. Breathe On also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Coherence's advantage is ratings volume (614 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 11 days). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Coherence sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Breathe On sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Breathe On holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Coherence has 614 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Coherence ships an update every 3 days, Breathe On every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
