# Inspector vs PingKit

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Inspector at none against PingKit's 10. Inspector also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). PingKit's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PingKit sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Inspector asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Inspector against 4.9 for PingKit. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PingKit has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Inspector ships an update every 2 months, PingKit every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
