Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Greysheet at 4.7 against Price Guide's 4.3. Greysheet also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 185). On price, review sentiment, 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. Greysheet sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 per month and Price Guide sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Greysheet holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Greysheet has 3.8K ratings behind it against 185, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of Greysheet's written reviews are positive against 31% of Price Guide's.
Greysheet ships an update every 9 days, Price Guide every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
