# Harbour vs ProxMan

The clearest difference is price: ProxMan at Free against Harbour's $2.99. ProxMan also leads on ratings volume (87 vs 11) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). Harbour's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On review sentiment, update cadence, ads and chart position there is nothing between them.

ProxMan is free to download; Harbour costs $2.99 up front. ProxMan sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Harbour asks for nothing beyond the download.

Harbour holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ProxMan has 87 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Harbour's written reviews are positive against 81% of ProxMan's.

Harbour ships an update every 6 weeks, ProxMan every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
