Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Power Pet Door at 4.4 against Heyaxa's 2.8. Power Pet Door also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (528 vs 14). Heyaxa's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 18%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Power Pet Door holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Power Pet Door has 528 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of Power Pet Door's written reviews are positive against 33% of Heyaxa's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Power Pet Door ships an update every 10 days, Heyaxa every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
