# Break The Loop vs HABIT

The clearest difference is review sentiment: HABIT at 100% against Break The Loop's 50%. HABIT also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Break The Loop's advantage is ratings volume (27 vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Break The Loop sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and HABIT sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HABIT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Break The Loop has 27 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Break The Loop's written reviews are positive against 100% of HABIT's.

Break The Loop ships an update every 4 days, HABIT fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
