Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: elspet at 4.6 against UPET's 2.8. elspet also leads on ratings volume (2.1K vs 13). UPET's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 16 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

elspet holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: elspet has 2.1K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of elspet's written reviews are positive against 46% of UPET's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

elspet ships an update every 16 months, UPET every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
