# Track vs Glide

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Track at none against Glide's 2. Track also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Glide's advantage is ratings volume (13 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Glide sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Track asks for nothing beyond the download.

Track holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Glide has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Track ships an update every 2 days, Glide weekly. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
