# Sono vs Debt Docket

The clearest difference is rating: Sono at 4.7 against Debt Docket's 2.5. Sono also leads on ratings volume (23 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). Debt Docket's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sono sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Debt Docket sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sono holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sono has 23 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 89% of Sono's written reviews are positive against 86% of Debt Docket's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
