Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: OutSavvy at 65% against Criterion Ticketing's 0%. Criterion Ticketing's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and ratings volume (200 vs 26). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Criterion Ticketing holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Criterion Ticketing has 200 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of OutSavvy's written reviews are positive against 0% of Criterion Ticketing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
OutSavvy ships an update every 3 weeks, Criterion Ticketing fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
