Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Cycle at none against Bike Tracker's shown. Cycle also leads on review sentiment (96% vs 63%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Bike Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (24 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence 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. Cycle sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Bike Tracker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Cycle holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bike Tracker has 24 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 96% of Cycle's written reviews are positive against 63% of Bike Tracker's.
Cycle ships an update monthly, Bike Tracker every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
