# Days Counter vs Day Counter

The clearest difference is rating: Day Counter at 4.7 against Days Counter's 4.2. Day Counter also leads on ratings volume (447 vs 5) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). Days Counter's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Days Counter sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Day Counter sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Day Counter holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Day Counter has 447 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Days Counter's written reviews are positive against 90% of Day Counter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Days Counter ships an update every 2 months, Day Counter every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
