Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Bob 93.3 at every 3 months against Big 98.7's every 11 months. Bob 93.3 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Big 98.7's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 67%) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price, ads, 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Bob 93.3 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Big 98.7 has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Bob 93.3's written reviews are positive against 83% of Big 98.7's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bob 93.3 ships an update every 3 months, Big 98.7 every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
