Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Subway® at weekly against Harvey's's every 2 months. Subway® also leads on ratings volume (1.2M vs 457) and chart position (#22 vs unranked). Harvey's's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Subway® against 4.7 for Harvey's. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subway® has 1.2M ratings behind it against 457, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 17% of Subway®'s written reviews are positive against 21% of Harvey's's.
Subway® ships an update weekly, Harvey's every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
