# CountX vs Momento

The clearest difference is ads: Momento at none against CountX's shown. Momento also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). CountX's advantage is ratings volume (88 vs 9). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CountX sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Momento sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 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 CountX against 4.7 for Momento. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CountX has 88 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two.

CountX ships an update fortnightly, Momento weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
