Verdict
The clearest difference is price: RA Tracker at Free against SUMEE!'s $1.99. SUMEE!'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks). On review sentiment, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

RA Tracker is free to download; SUMEE! costs $1.99 up front. RA Tracker sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. SUMEE! asks for nothing beyond the download.
SUMEE! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 53 and 253 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of RA Tracker's written reviews are positive against 79% of SUMEE!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RA Tracker ships an update every 2 weeks, SUMEE! daily. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
