Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Key Digital at 4.2 against Portal.io's 3.8. Key Digital also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). Portal.io's advantage is review sentiment (62% vs 50%) and ratings volume (30 vs 6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Key Digital holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Portal.io has 30 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Key Digital's written reviews are positive against 62% of Portal.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
