Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Datadog at 4.3 against HK Mobile's 3.7. Datadog also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (292 vs 3). HK Mobile's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 38%) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Datadog holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Datadog has 292 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Datadog's written reviews are positive against 50% of HK Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Datadog ships an update every 9 days, HK Mobile every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
