Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: BerkNow at monthly against MHV Digital Banking App's every 5 months. BerkNow also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3). MHV Digital Banking App's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 57) and review sentiment (49% vs 33%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
BerkNow holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MHV Digital Banking App has 1.4K ratings behind it against 57, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of BerkNow's written reviews are positive against 49% of MHV Digital Banking App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BerkNow ships an update monthly, MHV Digital Banking App every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
