Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PicksDb at 100% against UFC's 53%. PicksDb also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). UFC's advantage is ratings volume (47K vs 16) and chart position (#36 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. UFC sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and PicksDb sells 8 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

PicksDb holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UFC has 47K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 53% of UFC's written reviews are positive against 100% of PicksDb's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

UFC ships an update every 2 months, PicksDb fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
