Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Doc at free against iPostal1's subscription. Doc also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 17%). iPostal1's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 5) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iPostal1 holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iPostal1 has 1.1K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of iPostal1's written reviews are positive against 33% of Doc's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iPostal1 ships an update every 3 weeks, Doc every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
