Verdict

The call

Easy Wine Tracker's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 7 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pocket Wine holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pocket Wine has 657 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Pocket Wine's written reviews are positive against 100% of Easy Wine Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pocket Wine ships an update every 7 months, Easy Wine Tracker daily. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
