Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 3 at 4.4 against Fitz Frames's 3.7. 3 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

3 holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 3 has 713 ratings behind it against 108, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of 3's written reviews are positive against 46% of Fitz Frames's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

3 ships an update monthly, Fitz Frames every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
