Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Sportstats Tracker at 4.8 against Z5's 4.0. Sportstats Tracker also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (185 vs 1). Z5's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 11 months). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sportstats Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sportstats Tracker has 185 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of Sportstats Tracker's written reviews are positive against 100% of Z5's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sportstats Tracker ships an update every 11 months, Z5 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
