Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: GetDismissed at 59% against DoNotPay's 11%. GetDismissed also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). DoNotPay's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 2.1) and ratings volume (7.6K vs 15). On price, ads and device support 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. DoNotPay sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $35.99 per 3 months. GetDismissed asks for nothing beyond the download.
DoNotPay holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DoNotPay has 7.6K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of GetDismissed's written reviews are positive against 11% of DoNotPay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GetDismissed ships an update every 6 weeks, DoNotPay every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
