Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TropiCaddy at 5.0 against Golf Gear's 4.3. TropiCaddy also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 14%). Golf Gear's advantage is ratings volume (144 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TropiCaddy sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Golf Gear sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TropiCaddy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Golf Gear has 144 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of TropiCaddy's written reviews are positive against 14% of Golf Gear's.
TropiCaddy ships an update every 6 days, Golf Gear every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
