Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Scoreboard at none against Google's shown. Scoreboard also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 59%). Google's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (5.1M vs 360). On price, rating, 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

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Google sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $0.89 per month and Scoreboard sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Google holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google has 5.1M ratings behind it against 360, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Google's written reviews are positive against 80% of Scoreboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Google ships an update every 5 days, Scoreboard every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
