Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pingfluence at 5.0 against Buzz's 3.7. Pingfluence also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Buzz's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Pingfluence holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of Pingfluence's written reviews are positive against 100% of Buzz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pingfluence ships an update every 10 days, Buzz every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
