# Expense Tracker vs Trackonomy

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Expense Tracker at 889 against Trackonomy's 1. Expense Tracker also leads on chart position (#200 vs unranked). Trackonomy's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Expense Tracker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Trackonomy sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Trackonomy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Expense Tracker has 889 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of Expense Tracker's written reviews are positive against 100% of Trackonomy's.
