Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: golfity at free against PuttingAce's paid. golfity also leads on ratings volume (112 vs 13) and device support (3 vs 1). PuttingAce's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 68%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, ads 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. golfity sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and PuttingAce sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PuttingAce holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: golfity has 112 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of golfity's written reviews are positive against 100% of PuttingAce's.
golfity ships an update every 3 days, PuttingAce weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
