# Docket® vs Vaccine Ready

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Docket® at 73% against Vaccine Ready's 0%. Docket® also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ratings volume (46K vs 4). Vaccine Ready's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vaccine Ready sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Docket® asks for nothing beyond the download.

Vaccine Ready holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Docket® has 46K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Docket®'s written reviews are positive against 0% of Vaccine Ready's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Docket® ships an update every 6 weeks, Vaccine Ready every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
