Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Barrett at none against Driven's shown. Barrett also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Driven's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks) and review sentiment (75% vs 58%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Barrett holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 53 and 24 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Barrett's written reviews are positive against 75% of Driven's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Barrett ships an update every 2 weeks, Driven every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
