Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Auto Feeder at 5.0 against Catit®'s 2.1. Catit®'s advantage is monetization model (free vs paid) and ratings volume (85 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Auto Feeder holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Catit® has 85 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 12% of Auto Feeder's written reviews are positive against 17% of Catit®'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on August 8, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
