# Dose vs Overload

The clearest difference is rating: Dose at 4.7 against Overload's 4.4. Dose also leads on ratings volume (103 vs 7) and review sentiment (77% vs 67%). Overload's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dose sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Overload sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dose holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dose has 103 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of Dose's written reviews are positive against 67% of Overload's.

Dose ships an update every 2 weeks, Overload every 4 days. Both last shipped on November 9, 2026.
