Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: JotJournal at 78% against Auto Feeder's 12%. JotJournal also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (14 vs 1). Auto Feeder's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Auto Feeder holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: JotJournal has 14 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 78% of JotJournal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Auto Feeder ships an update every 2 months, JotJournal weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
