# Sugar vs Datezzle

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Datezzle at 100% against Sugar's 29%. Datezzle also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Sugar's advantage is ratings volume (637 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sugar sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Datezzle sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Datezzle holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sugar has 637 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 29% of Sugar's written reviews are positive against 100% of Datezzle's.

Sugar ships an update monthly, Datezzle every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
