Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bluelife at 100% against Brobuddy's 14%. Bluelife also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Brobuddy's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Brobuddy sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Bluelife sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Brobuddy holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brobuddy has 1.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Brobuddy's written reviews are positive against 100% of Bluelife's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Brobuddy ships an update fortnightly, Bluelife every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
