Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Referron at 100% against HubSpot's 46%. Referron also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). HubSpot's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Referron holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HubSpot has 16K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of HubSpot's written reviews are positive against 100% of Referron's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

HubSpot ships an update weekly, Referron every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
