# Speedmeter + vs custometer

The clearest difference is rating: custometer at 5.0 against Speedmeter +'s 4.5. custometer also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months). Speedmeter +'s advantage is ratings volume (4.7K vs 2). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

custometer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speedmeter + has 4.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 55% of Speedmeter +'s written reviews are positive against 60% of custometer's.

Speedmeter + ships an update every 6 months, custometer fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
