# Amica vs PetValid

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Amica at none against PetValid's 2. Amica also leads on ratings volume (7.9K vs 1). PetValid's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PetValid sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Amica asks for nothing beyond the download.

PetValid holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Amica has 7.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Amica ships an update fortnightly, PetValid every 6 days. Both last shipped on October 1, 2026.
