# Lyfe vs GymPaper

The clearest difference is update cadence: GymPaper at fortnightly against Lyfe's every 3 months. Lyfe's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lyfe sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and GymPaper sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Lyfe ships an update every 3 months, GymPaper fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 11, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
