Let FilterFresh be your filter guardian angel! Simply tell FilterFresh about your filters: HVAC, water, air purifier, humidifier, dehumidifier, engine, or whatever kind of filter or consumable you need to replace or clean on a regular basis. FilterFresh will remind you in advance when to replace or clean each one. Use the FilterFresh widget any time to get a quick overview of your filters' conditions. The only thing FilterFresh cannot do is perform the maintenance for you. You'll have to do that yourself!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FilterFresh at 4.8 against CountRetail's 2.5. FilterFresh also leads on ratings volume (173 vs 2). CountRetail's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FilterFresh holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FilterFresh has 173 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of FilterFresh's written reviews are positive against 100% of CountRetail's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FilterFresh ships an update every 3 months, CountRetail every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
