# Days vs Tickr

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tickr at 100% against Days's 73%. Tickr also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). Days's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Days sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Tickr sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tickr holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Days has 12K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 73% of Days's written reviews are positive against 100% of Tickr's.

Days ships an update every 5 days, Tickr every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 4, 2026 respectively.
