# Intent vs Reset

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Intent at 16.4 against Reset's 18.0. On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Intent sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Reset sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Intent holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 212 and 254 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Intent's written reviews are positive against 35% of Reset's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
