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.
Settld. holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of TipGenie's written reviews are positive against 50% of Settld.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TipGenie ships an update weekly, Settld. every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
