# mySleepButton vs Sleep Reset

The clearest difference is update cadence: Sleep Reset at fortnightly against mySleepButton's every 5 months. Sleep Reset also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (3.5K vs 212). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. mySleepButton sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Sleep Reset sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $229.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sleep Reset holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sleep Reset has 3.5K ratings behind it against 212, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of mySleepButton's written reviews are positive against 66% of Sleep Reset's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

mySleepButton ships an update every 5 months, Sleep Reset fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
