Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: TrickleStar App at 100% against HTC My Account's 48%. TrickleStar App also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.5). HTC My Account's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 2.0) and ratings volume (3.6K vs 6). On price, update cadence, 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
HTC My Account holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HTC My Account has 3.6K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of HTC My Account's written reviews are positive against 100% of TrickleStar App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
HTC My Account ships an update every 5 months, TrickleStar App every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
