Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Apple Tree at none against Orange Tree's shown. Apple Tree also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 65%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). Orange Tree's advantage is ratings volume (205 vs 1) and rating (4.3 vs 4.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Orange Tree sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Apple Tree sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Orange Tree holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Orange Tree has 205 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Orange Tree's written reviews are positive against 100% of Apple Tree's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Orange Tree ships an update every 3 months, Apple Tree every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
