# Parcel vs Tracko

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Parcel at 86% against Tracko's 25%. Parcel also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (22K vs 57). Tracko's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Parcel sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per year and Tracko sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Parcel holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Parcel has 22K ratings behind it against 57, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 86% of Parcel's written reviews are positive against 25% of Tracko's.

Parcel ships an update every 2 weeks, Tracko fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
