# Hygrometer vs Safety tips

The clearest difference is rating: Hygrometer at 4.7 against Safety tips's 2.1. Hygrometer also leads on review sentiment (53% vs 17%) and ratings volume (6.1K vs 18). Safety tips's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hygrometer sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Safety tips asks for nothing beyond the download.

Hygrometer holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hygrometer has 6.1K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 53% of Hygrometer's written reviews are positive against 17% of Safety tips's.

Hygrometer ships an update every 3 weeks, Safety tips fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
