# Gear vs Netclicker

The clearest difference is rating: Netclicker at 5.0 against Gear's 4.0. Gear's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (252 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gear sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Netclicker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Netclicker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gear has 252 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 56% of Gear's written reviews are positive against 60% of Netclicker's.

Gear ships an update every 5 days, Netclicker every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
