Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Assure at daily against SubManager's every 8 days. Assure also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 17.4). SubManager's advantage is ratings volume (64 vs 8) and device support (5 vs 2). 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. Assure sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and SubManager sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Assure holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SubManager has 64 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Assure's written reviews are positive against 97% of SubManager's.
Assure ships an update daily, SubManager every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
