Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Find My Device at none against Device Tracker's 9. Find My Device also leads on review sentiment (48% vs 25%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). Device Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (37K vs 1.2K). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Device Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Device Tracker has 37K ratings behind it against 1.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Find My Device's written reviews are positive against 25% of Device Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Find My Device ships an update every 8 months, Device Tracker every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
