# Odmaster vs HFpager

The clearest difference is review sentiment: HFpager at 71% against Odmaster's 29%. HFpager also leads on iOS requirement (12.4 vs 14.0). Odmaster's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HFpager sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per year. Odmaster asks for nothing beyond the download.

Odmaster holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Odmaster has 1.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Odmaster's written reviews are positive against 71% of HFpager's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Odmaster ships an update every 3 weeks, HFpager every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
