Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Yielded at free with in-app purchases against Move To Scroll's subscription. Yielded also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). Move To Scroll's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (14% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Move To Scroll sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Yielded sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Yielded holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Move To Scroll has 163 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Move To Scroll's written reviews are positive against 0% of Yielded's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Move To Scroll ships an update every 8 days, Yielded every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
