Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Rest Super at none against Westpac's shown. Rest Super also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Westpac's advantage is ratings volume (355 vs 11) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Westpac against 4.5 for Rest Super.

Written reviews are what separate them: 33% of Westpac's written reviews are positive against 19% of Rest Super's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Westpac ships an update fortnightly, Rest Super every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 18, 2026.
