Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Rise at 4.8 against Upshot!'s 4.0. Rise also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Upshot!'s advantage is review sentiment (90% vs 76%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Rise holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rise has 155 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Upshot!'s written reviews are positive against 76% of Rise's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Upshot! ships an update every 8 months, Rise every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
