# Frequency vs The Tapping Solution

The clearest difference is monetization model: Frequency at free with in-app purchases against The Tapping Solution's subscription. Frequency also leads on ads (none vs shown). The Tapping Solution's advantage is ratings volume (24K vs 2.4K) and chart position (#143 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Frequency sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and The Tapping Solution sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Frequency against 4.8 for The Tapping Solution. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Tapping Solution has 24K ratings behind it against 2.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 85% and 85% positive.

Frequency ships an update every 10 days, The Tapping Solution every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
