Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Book Tracker at 751 against Bibliobeats's 6. Bibliobeats's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Book Tracker sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Bibliobeats sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Book Tracker against 4.8 for Bibliobeats. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Book Tracker has 751 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Book Tracker ships an update every 5 weeks, Bibliobeats every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
