Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: SupportPay at Free against Alimentor 2's $6.99. SupportPay also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Alimentor 2's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 9) and review sentiment (93% vs 77%). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SupportPay holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Alimentor 2 has 1.3K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of SupportPay's written reviews are positive against 93% of Alimentor 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SupportPay ships an update every 3 weeks, Alimentor 2 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
