# Dart Scoreboard Pro vs Benchmark Golf

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dart Scoreboard Pro at 90% against Benchmark Golf's 6%. Dart Scoreboard Pro also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and device support (4 vs 1). Benchmark Golf's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 132). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dart Scoreboard Pro sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Benchmark Golf sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $15.99 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 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Benchmark Golf has 2.4K ratings behind it against 132, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of Dart Scoreboard Pro's written reviews are positive against 6% of Benchmark Golf's.

Dart Scoreboard Pro ships an update every 3 days, Benchmark Golf every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
