Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Phantom at 74% against Clueprit's 25%. Phantom also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks). Clueprit's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, 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. Phantom sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Clueprit sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Clueprit holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 33 and 65 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Phantom's written reviews are positive against 25% of Clueprit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Phantom ships an update every 9 days, Clueprit every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
