# Joist vs FieldOpsPro

The clearest difference is review sentiment: FieldOpsPro at 100% against Joist's 61%. FieldOpsPro also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Joist's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 15) and chart position (#16 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Joist sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. FieldOpsPro asks for nothing beyond the download.

FieldOpsPro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Joist has 14K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 61% of Joist's written reviews are positive against 100% of FieldOpsPro's.

Joist ships an update every 2 weeks, FieldOpsPro weekly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
