# GRANBOARD vs Dart Scoreboard Pro

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dart Scoreboard Pro at 90% against GRANBOARD's 35%. Dart Scoreboard Pro also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). GRANBOARD's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GRANBOARD sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Dart Scoreboard Pro sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dart Scoreboard Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 515 and 132 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 35% of GRANBOARD's written reviews are positive against 90% of Dart Scoreboard Pro's.

GRANBOARD ships an update fortnightly, Dart Scoreboard Pro every 3 days. Both last shipped on October 26, 2026.
