ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Push Up Time holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Push Up Time has 279 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Push Up Time's written reviews are positive against 100% of Scrollift's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Push Up Time ships an update every 10 days, Scrollift every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
