Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Gold+ at 4.7 against Arz's 4.1. Gold+ also leads on ratings volume (890 vs 92). Arz's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Gold+ holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gold+ has 890 ratings behind it against 92, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Arz's written reviews are positive against 64% of Gold+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Arz ships an update every 6 weeks, Gold+ every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
