# Connected2.me vs Gööp

Connected2.me and Gööp both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Gööp's written reviews are positive against 23% of Connected2.me's. Gööp also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 12) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). Connected2.me's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (31K vs 13). On price, rating, update cadence 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. Gööp asks for nothing beyond the download.

Connected2.me holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connected2.me has 31K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Connected2.me's written reviews are positive against 100% of Gööp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Connected2.me ships an update fortnightly, Gööp every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
