Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Springs App at 80% against apiALARM's 28%. Springs App also leads on iOS requirement (12.2 vs 17.0). apiALARM's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (15 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

apiALARM holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: apiALARM has 15 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Springs App's written reviews are positive against 28% of apiALARM's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
