# Reset vs Kronus

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Kronus at 100% against Reset's 36%. Kronus also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Reset's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (241 vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Reset sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Kronus sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kronus holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reset has 241 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 36% of Reset's written reviews are positive against 100% of Kronus's.

Reset ships an update every 3 days, Kronus weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
