# PopWeight vs Weight Tracker

The clearest difference is rating: Weight Tracker at 4.4 against PopWeight's 3.8. Weight Tracker also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (997 vs 23). PopWeight's advantage is iOS requirement (8.1 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PopWeight sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Weight Tracker sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Weight Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Weight Tracker has 997 ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of PopWeight's written reviews are positive against 64% of Weight Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PopWeight ships an update every 2 months, Weight Tracker weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 11, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
