Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Amion at 4.4 against Pacemaker's 3.5. Amion also leads on ratings volume (5.6K vs 62). Pacemaker's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (40% vs 24%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Amion holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Amion has 5.6K ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Amion's written reviews are positive against 40% of Pacemaker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Amion ships an update every 3 weeks, Pacemaker every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
