# Potfolio vs LabelBug

The clearest difference is rating: LabelBug at 5.0 against Potfolio's 4.2. LabelBug also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Potfolio's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Potfolio sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and LabelBug sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

LabelBug holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Potfolio has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Potfolio ships an update monthly, LabelBug fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
