Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Sprout at 100% against BiggerPockets's 58%. Sprout also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). BiggerPockets's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. BiggerPockets sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $39.00 per month and Sprout sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Sprout holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BiggerPockets has 1.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 58% of BiggerPockets's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sprout's.
BiggerPockets ships an update fortnightly, Sprout every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
