# FanGraphs vs StatChat

The clearest difference is ads: StatChat at none against FanGraphs's shown. StatChat also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). FanGraphs's advantage is ratings volume (349 vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FanGraphs sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and StatChat sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

StatChat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FanGraphs has 349 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of FanGraphs's written reviews are positive against 100% of StatChat's.

FanGraphs ships an update every 2 weeks, StatChat monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
