Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Bobby at 8K against Subscription Tracker's 2. Bobby also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17). Subscription Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Bobby sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Subscription Tracker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Subscription Tracker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bobby has 8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bobby ships an update every 2 months, Subscription Tracker every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
