# BACtrack vs SoberSense 2025

The clearest difference is review sentiment: SoberSense 2025 at 100% against BACtrack's 27%. SoberSense 2025 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.6). BACtrack's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BACtrack sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $39.99 per year. SoberSense 2025 asks for nothing beyond the download.

BACtrack holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BACtrack has 1.5K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of BACtrack's written reviews are positive against 100% of SoberSense 2025's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
