ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Screen Time Control holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screen Time Control has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Resist Together's written reviews are positive against 50% of Screen Time Control's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Resist Together ships an update every 9 days, Screen Time Control every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
