Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Raivo at 4.4 against Owky's 3.7. Raivo also leads on ratings volume (181 vs 3) and update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). Owky's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and review sentiment (50% vs 36%). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Raivo holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Raivo has 181 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Raivo's written reviews are positive against 50% of Owky's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Raivo ships an update every 10 days, Owky monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
