Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PagerDuty at 4.8 against Splunk Mobile's 4.3. PagerDuty also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (5.2K vs 39). Splunk Mobile's advantage is review sentiment (42% vs 25%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PagerDuty holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PagerDuty has 5.2K ratings behind it against 39, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of PagerDuty's written reviews are positive against 42% of Splunk Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PagerDuty ships an update weekly, Splunk Mobile every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
