# Life Clock vs Pookie

The clearest difference is rating: Pookie at 4.6 against Life Clock's 3.0. Pookie also leads on ratings volume (1.4K vs 2). Life Clock's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Life Clock sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Pookie sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pookie holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pookie has 1.4K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Life Clock's written reviews are positive against 43% of Pookie's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Life Clock ships an update fortnightly, Pookie weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
