Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bracket Maker at 4.7 against PlayoffZone's 4.4. PlayoffZone's advantage is review sentiment (10% vs 0%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.2). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PlayoffZone sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Bracket Maker sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Bracket Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 77 and 84 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of PlayoffZone's written reviews are positive against 0% of Bracket Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PlayoffZone ships an update every 3 weeks, Bracket Maker monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
