Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Microgram at 4.7 against Bitalyze's 3.9. Microgram also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 7). Bitalyze's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Microgram sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Bitalyze sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Microgram holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microgram has 1.1K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Microgram's written reviews are positive against 100% of Bitalyze's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Microgram ships an update every 2 weeks, Bitalyze every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
