Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FanGraphs at 4.8 against ProspectPulse's 4.3. FanGraphs also leads on ratings volume (387 vs 6). ProspectPulse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. FanGraphs sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and ProspectPulse sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FanGraphs holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FanGraphs has 387 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of FanGraphs's written reviews are positive against 100% of ProspectPulse's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FanGraphs ships an update every 2 weeks, ProspectPulse daily. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
