# KHL vs SHL Matchtracker

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SHL Matchtracker at none against KHL's 23. SHL Matchtracker also leads on ads (none vs shown). KHL's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KHL sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. SHL Matchtracker asks for nothing beyond the download.

SHL Matchtracker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KHL has 1.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

KHL ships an update every 5 weeks, SHL Matchtracker every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
