Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Fresh Stats at 100% against eSELFSERVE's 44%. Fresh Stats also leads on iOS requirement (10.3 vs 15.6). eSELFSERVE's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 3.9) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
eSELFSERVE holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eSELFSERVE has 1.8K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Fresh Stats's written reviews are positive against 44% of eSELFSERVE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Fresh Stats ships an update every 3 months, eSELFSERVE fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
