Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Chargeprice at 5.0 against WattsUp's 2.0. Chargeprice also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 46%) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). WattsUp's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chargeprice sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. WattsUp asks for nothing beyond the download.
Chargeprice holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chargeprice has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of WattsUp's written reviews are positive against 79% of Chargeprice's.
WattsUp ships an update every 6 weeks, Chargeprice monthly. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
