Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PeTalk at 4.2 against Pettitude's 3.5. PeTalk also leads on ratings volume (445 vs 6) and device support (4 vs 2). Pettitude's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PeTalk sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Pettitude asks for nothing beyond the download.
PeTalk holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PeTalk has 445 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of PeTalk's written reviews are positive against 50% of Pettitude's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PeTalk ships an update every 4 months, Pettitude every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
