Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FilterTok at 4.1 against Action Loops's 2.6. FilterTok also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (2.6K vs 5). Action Loops's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 18%) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Action Loops sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and FilterTok sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FilterTok holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FilterTok has 2.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Action Loops's written reviews are positive against 18% of FilterTok's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Action Loops ships an update every 4 months, FilterTok weekly. The most recent releases landed on August 12, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
