Pulse's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pulse holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Compot's written reviews are positive against 33% of Pulse's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Compot ships an update every 2 weeks, Pulse every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
