# VibeCheck vs Limits

The clearest difference is rating: VibeCheck at 5.0 against Limits's 4.3. VibeCheck also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). Limits's advantage is ratings volume (41 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VibeCheck sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Limits sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

VibeCheck holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Limits has 41 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

VibeCheck ships an update every 2 weeks, Limits every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
