# Remember vs Blinking

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Remember at 5 against Blinking's 1. Blinking's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Remember sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Blinking sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Remember against 5.0 for Blinking. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Remember has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Remember ships an update every 10 days, Blinking every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
