# Summary vs Core Audit

The clearest difference is ads: Core Audit at none against Summary's shown. Core Audit also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Summary's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 1) and update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Summary sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days and Core Audit sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Core Audit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Summary has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Summary ships an update every 6 days, Core Audit fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
