# Peak vs NeuroNudge

Peak and NeuroNudge both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of NeuroNudge's written reviews are positive against 64% of Peak's. NeuroNudge also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Peak's advantage is ratings volume (146K vs 4) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Peak sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and NeuroNudge sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.99 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 Peak against 4.8 for NeuroNudge. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Peak has 146K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 64% of Peak's written reviews are positive against 100% of NeuroNudge's.

Peak ships an update fortnightly, NeuroNudge every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
