# Lately vs Resolution

The clearest difference is rating: Resolution at 5.0 against Lately's 4.6. Resolution also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Lately's advantage is ratings volume (47 vs 3). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lately sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Resolution sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Resolution holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lately has 47 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 94% of Lately's written reviews are positive against 100% of Resolution's.

Lately ships an update every 2 weeks, Resolution every 2 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
