Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Fasting Tracker at none against Tear Tales's shown. Fasting Tracker also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (9.1K vs 4). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Fasting Tracker sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Tear Tales sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Fasting Tracker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fasting Tracker has 9.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Fasting Tracker's written reviews are positive against 100% of Tear Tales's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Fasting Tracker ships an update every 3 days, Tear Tales every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
