Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Wealthica at 4.0 against PocketSmith Sidekick's 3.1. Wealthica also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). PocketSmith Sidekick's advantage is review sentiment (35% vs 23%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PocketSmith Sidekick sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month and Wealthica sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $6.29 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wealthica holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 53 and 22 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of PocketSmith Sidekick's written reviews are positive against 23% of Wealthica's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PocketSmith Sidekick ships an update every 6 weeks, Wealthica every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 13, 2026.
