Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bullets* at 68% against AAOS Annual Meeting's 23%. Bullets* also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 7 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). AAOS Annual Meeting's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (658 vs 62). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AAOS Annual Meeting holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AAOS Annual Meeting has 658 ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Bullets*'s written reviews are positive against 23% of AAOS Annual Meeting's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bullets* ships an update weekly, AAOS Annual Meeting every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
