# Unraid Deck vs Quartermaster

The clearest difference is rating: Quartermaster at 5.0 against Unraid Deck's 4.8. Quartermaster also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.1). Unraid Deck's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Unraid Deck sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Quartermaster sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Quartermaster holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 24 and 30 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Unraid Deck's written reviews are positive against 94% of Quartermaster's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Unraid Deck ships an update weekly, Quartermaster fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
