# BAS vs Detectir

The clearest difference is rating: BAS at 5.0 against Detectir's 4.4. BAS also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). Detectir's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (189 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Detectir sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. BAS asks for nothing beyond the download.

BAS holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Detectir has 189 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of BAS's written reviews are positive against 82% of Detectir's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

BAS ships an update every 9 months, Detectir every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
