# Discovery vs Puff Count

The clearest difference is price: Discovery at Free against Puff Count's $2.99. Discovery also leads on ratings volume (3.6K vs 3) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Puff Count's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 22%) and device support (3 vs 1). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Discovery is free to download; Puff Count costs $2.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Discovery holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Discovery has 3.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Discovery's written reviews are positive against 40% of Puff Count's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Discovery ships an update fortnightly, Puff Count every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 26, 2026.
