# UFC vs PicksDb

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 (#43 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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.

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.

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