Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Jackl at none against Award Expert's shown. Jackl also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 6 days) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Award Expert's advantage is ratings volume (251 vs 15). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Award Expert sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Jackl sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Jackl holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Award Expert has 251 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 93% of Award Expert's written reviews are positive against 100% of Jackl's.
Award Expert ships an update every 6 days, Jackl daily. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
