Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Sponser at 3.7 against Sterling Trader's 3.0. Sponser also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.0). Sterling Trader's advantage is review sentiment (36% vs 0%) and ratings volume (40 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Sponser holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sterling Trader has 40 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Sponser's written reviews are positive against 36% of Sterling Trader's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Sponser ships an update every 3 weeks, Sterling Trader every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
