# Alpha Omega vs Joggle

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Alpha Omega at 5.7K against Joggle's 84. Alpha Omega also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.5 vs 15.0). Joggle's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 73%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Alpha Omega sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Joggle sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Alpha Omega holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Alpha Omega has 5.7K ratings behind it against 84, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Alpha Omega's written reviews are positive against 83% of Joggle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Alpha Omega ships an update monthly, Joggle every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
