# Days vs 4K Life

The clearest difference is rating: Days at 4.8 against 4K Life's 3.8. Days also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). 4K Life's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Days sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and 4K Life sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Days holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Days has 12K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 74% of Days's written reviews are positive against 50% of 4K Life's.

Days ships an update every 5 days, 4K Life monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
