Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ServiceM8 Phone holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FieldPulse has 117 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of ServiceM8 Phone's written reviews are positive against 55% of FieldPulse's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
