Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PocketSmith Sidekick at 3.1 against Neontra's 2.0. PocketSmith Sidekick also leads on ratings volume (52 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). Neontra's advantage is review sentiment (58% vs 35%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PocketSmith Sidekick sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month and Neontra sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PocketSmith Sidekick holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PocketSmith Sidekick has 52 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of PocketSmith Sidekick's written reviews are positive against 58% of Neontra's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PocketSmith Sidekick ships an update every 6 weeks, Neontra every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
