# KeepPushing vs ShiftNight

The clearest difference is monetization model: KeepPushing at freemium against ShiftNight's subscription. ShiftNight's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (54 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KeepPushing sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and ShiftNight sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for KeepPushing against 4.9 for ShiftNight. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ShiftNight has 54 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 86% of KeepPushing's written reviews are positive against 100% of ShiftNight's.

KeepPushing ships an update every 8 days, ShiftNight every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
