Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Buildertrend at 4.5 against Shoely's 4.0. Buildertrend also leads on ratings volume (5.1K vs 4) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Shoely's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 28%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases 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.
Buildertrend holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Buildertrend has 5.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Buildertrend's written reviews are positive against 50% of Shoely's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Buildertrend ships an update weekly, Shoely every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
