# UPS vs Package Tracker － Packy

The clearest difference is rating: UPS at 4.6 against Package Tracker － Packy's 3.9. UPS also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 13) and ads (none vs shown). Package Tracker － Packy's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Package Tracker － Packy sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. UPS asks for nothing beyond the download.

UPS holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UPS has 1.2M ratings behind it against 2.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of UPS's written reviews are positive against 26% of Package Tracker － Packy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
