# Connected2.me vs LEMON

The clearest difference is review sentiment: LEMON at 88% against Connected2.me's 23%. LEMON also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4). Connected2.me's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Connected2.me sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $15.49 per 7 days and LEMON sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

LEMON holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connected2.me has 31K ratings behind it against 2.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 23% of Connected2.me's written reviews are positive against 88% of LEMON's.

Connected2.me ships an update fortnightly, LEMON every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 26, 2026.
