# Productive vs FIT

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FIT at none against Productive's 12. FIT also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). Productive's advantage is device support (4 vs 1). On price and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Productive sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 3 months. FIT asks for nothing beyond the download.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
