# Second vs Pochi

The clearest difference is rating: Second at 5.0 against Pochi's 3.0. Second also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Pochi's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Second sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Pochi sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Second holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Second's written reviews are positive against 92% of Pochi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Second ships an update every 4 days, Pochi every 6 days. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
