# Unchaind vs Break The Loop

The clearest difference is monetization model: Unchaind at free with in-app purchases against Break The Loop's subscription. Unchaind also leads on ratings volume (41K vs 27) and chart position (#118 vs unranked). Break The Loop's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Unchaind sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Break The Loop sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Unchaind against 4.7 for Break The Loop. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Unchaind has 41K ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 58% of Unchaind's written reviews are positive against 50% of Break The Loop's.

Unchaind ships an update every 2 weeks, Break The Loop every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
