Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Summary at 72% against Oil Shelf's 0%. Summary also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Oil Shelf sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month and Summary sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Summary holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Summary has 57K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of Oil Shelf's written reviews are positive against 72% of Summary's.
Oil Shelf ships an update every 9 days, Summary every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
