Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CountRetail at 100% against nGaugeApp's 50%. CountRetail also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.6). nGaugeApp's advantage is rating (3.7 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (6 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
nGaugeApp holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of CountRetail's written reviews are positive against 50% of nGaugeApp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CountRetail ships an update every 2 weeks, nGaugeApp every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
