# ACIM Remind vs Kubo Journal

The clearest difference is ratings volume: ACIM Remind at 3.2K against Kubo Journal's 1. Kubo Journal's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs paid) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ACIM Remind sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Kubo Journal sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 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 — 4.9 for ACIM Remind against 5.0 for Kubo Journal. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ACIM Remind has 3.2K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 90% of ACIM Remind's written reviews are positive against 100% of Kubo Journal's.
