TinyPick is a tool that helps users make rational decisions. Why did I think of developing the TinyPick App? Because in our daily lives, we often need to make various decisions, big and small. For example: where to travel on vacation, which school to send children to, whether to buy a house, whether to buy a car, whether to change jobs, whether to return to my hometown for development... and so on. However, I am a person who is more easily entangled. Whenever I make some decisions, I often think and struggle in my mind, and it is easy to ignore the key decision factors of a certain thing. So, when making decisions, I hope to write down the opinions for and against (pros and cons) of each thing one by one, so that I can have a more complete understanding of this matter. So, there is the TinyPick tool. TinyPick supports the creation of multiple things that need to be decided, supports the input of reasons for support and opposition for each thing, and supports the input of corresponding scores. In this way, we can clearly see the overall situation and score of each thing, and TinyPick will automatically give suggestions for you to make the final decision based on the score. In addition, TinyPick also supports writing a summary for each decision. You can record your feelings when making the decision, and you can also record whether the decision was made correctly later. Finally, TinyPick can actually be used as a general scoring tool, because TinyPick supports positive and negative scores. You can record scores for anything and automatically count the highest score and ranking for you. For example, basketball games, chess and card scoring, etc. Currently supported functions: - Multiple decision issue making - Support and opposition reasons - Reason score recording - Automatic analysis of decisions Future supported functions: - More types of decision-making tools - More dimensional data statistics - AI-assisted decision-making Contact the developer: linguny@gmail.com ———————— Privacy Policy: https://kennylin.notion.site/TinyPick-Privacy-Policy-13f80aa095c0803091a4d3d87abc1f48 User Terms: https://kennylin.notion.site/TinyPick-User-Terms-14280aa095c080acbb71dbdcb1a2efde USER LICENSE AGREEMENT: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: DoBuff at 100% against TinyPick's 75%. DoBuff also leads on ratings volume (39 vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). TinyPick's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases 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. TinyPick sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and DoBuff sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TinyPick holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DoBuff has 39 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of TinyPick's written reviews are positive against 100% of DoBuff's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TinyPick ships an update fortnightly, DoBuff weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
