# Doodle vs HeartSee

The clearest difference is review sentiment: HeartSee at 100% against Doodle's 29%. HeartSee also leads on rating (4.9 vs 3.5) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months). Doodle's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 13) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HeartSee sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Doodle asks for nothing beyond the download.

HeartSee holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HeartSee has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 29% of Doodle's written reviews are positive against 100% of HeartSee's.

Doodle ships an update every 7 months, HeartSee every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
