Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Horizon Path at none against PILE's 10. Horizon Path also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). PILE's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (75 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PILE sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Horizon Path asks for nothing beyond the download.
PILE holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PILE has 75 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of PILE's written reviews are positive against 100% of Horizon Path's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PILE ships an update every 2 months, Horizon Path every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
