Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: 1Mate at free against Chances's ad-supported. 1Mate also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 91%) and iOS requirement (12 vs 15.1). Chances's advantage is ratings volume (28 vs 5). On price, rating, update cadence and ads 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Chances holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chances has 28 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of 1Mate's written reviews are positive against 91% of Chances's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
1Mate ships an update every 3 weeks, Chances every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
