Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: BlueSolutions Spending at 4.1 against PBS Benny's 2.3. BlueSolutions Spending also leads on ratings volume (244 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). PBS Benny's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
BlueSolutions Spending holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BlueSolutions Spending has 244 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of PBS Benny's written reviews are positive against 13% of BlueSolutions Spending's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PBS Benny ships an update every 4 months, BlueSolutions Spending every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
