Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Booster Prep at 4.9 against PAT's 3.7. Booster Prep also leads on review sentiment (59% vs 28%) and ratings volume (700 vs 62). PAT's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. PAT sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Booster Prep sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Booster Prep holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Booster Prep has 700 ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 28% of PAT's written reviews are positive against 59% of Booster Prep's.
PAT ships an update monthly, Booster Prep fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on July 6, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
