# My Bracket vs Tournaments

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tournaments at none against My Bracket's 6. Tournaments also leads on review sentiment (64% vs 48%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). My Bracket's advantage is ratings volume (5.3K vs 11). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My Bracket sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Tournaments asks for nothing beyond the download.

My Bracket holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Bracket has 5.3K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of My Bracket's written reviews are positive against 64% of Tournaments's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
