# MY LIFTER vs U

The clearest difference is rating: U at 5.0 against MY LIFTER's 4.1. U also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). MY LIFTER's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and ratings volume (186 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. U sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. MY LIFTER asks for nothing beyond the download.

U holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MY LIFTER has 186 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

MY LIFTER ships an update every 4 months, U fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
