Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Easlo Experiments at 90% against Lock In's 50%. Easlo Experiments also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (22 vs 1). Lock In's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lock In holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Easlo Experiments has 22 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Easlo Experiments's written reviews are positive against 50% of Lock In's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Easlo Experiments ships an update every 3 weeks, Lock In every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 11, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
