NEVER MISS A DRINK High Proof shows you cocktails sorted by how close you are to making them. One bottle away from a Penicillin? It'll tell you. Two ingredients short of a Last Word? It knows.

Verdict

The call

Tock and High Proof both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of High Proof's written reviews are positive against 25% of Tock's. High Proof also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.4). Tock's advantage is price (Free vs $1.99) and ratings volume (9.7K vs 11). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
