About

TicketFaeBuddy

Read full description

The TicketFae Buddy app is the companion app for TicketFae. Your friend uses the TicketFae app to plan and organize your group's events — now you use TicketFae Buddy to join in: the planning and tickets are synced automatically, and notifications keep you up to date. You didn't buy the tickets. You just want them to show up — the right seat, the right night, without you having to keep track of anything. KEEP THE MEMORIES, NOT JUST THE TICKET Whatever photos your fae adds to an event — one shot or a whole gallery — stay attached to it in your app too, so your history with your crew builds into something you can look back on instead of scattering across everyone's camera roll. YOUR TICKETS, SAFE AND BACKED UP Every ticket that lands in your account is automatically mirrored to your iCloud — durable storage that survives a reinstall or a new phone. Your ticket is still there when you need it. SAY HOW MANY, BEFORE THEY BUY When your fae is planning a night out, just tell them how many tickets you're in for — right from the app, before anything's purchased. No group-chat headcount required. SEE WHAT YOU'VE PAID Every charge and payment is tracked automatically, so you always know what you've spent and what — if anything — you still owe. No spreadsheet required. RELIVE YOUR YEAR IN EVENTS Insights shows your year at a glance: how many events, how much you spent, your favorite venues, and how the group rated each night. WHAT'S A FAE? In Irish and Celtic folklore, the fae are the fairy folk — the unseen hands that quietly make things happen. Every friend group has one. TicketFae Buddy is for everyone else. COMPLETELY FREE. NO CATCH. No premium tier, no paywall, no ads. Ever. PAIRING TAKES SECONDS Scan a QR code with your fae once and you're paired, using the iCloud account you already have. No new account to create, no password to remember. Download TicketFae Buddy and never lose a ticket, forget what you owe, or dig through a group chat for a QR code again.

Verdict

The call

WiZ Connected's advantage is chart position (#126 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
