Draw a card, give your rating and keep track of everything you judge: food, locations, moments, ideas - whatever deserves an honest number. How it works: - Tap a card from 0 to 10 - it appears large on the screen - Swipe up or down on the card to fine-tune your value (with a satisfying snap) - Tap to confirm - a rating-based animation and haptics give you feedback - Done: your rating is saved What Rate10 offers: - Fast, satisfying rating with animations that grow with the score - Your personal stats: total count, ratings today, the 0 to 10 distribution, average and favourite value - Sharing: turn a rating into a nice card and share it with friends - Light and dark mode follow your device automatically - English and German, automatically by device language Privacy first: - Local-first: your ratings stay on your device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Rate10 at every 8 days against DoorBird's every 3 weeks. DoorBird's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
