# Counter + vs Poll At Once

The clearest difference is rating: Poll At Once at 4.7 against Counter +'s 4.2. Poll At Once also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18). Counter +'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 8 months) and review sentiment (74% vs 50%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Counter + sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Poll At Once sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Poll At Once holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Counter + has 392 ratings behind it against 63, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Counter +'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Poll At Once's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Counter + ships an update fortnightly, Poll At Once every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
