Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ready at 4.6 against Record's 3.0. Ready also leads on ratings volume (8 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). Record's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 17 months) and review sentiment (86% vs 67%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Ready holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 8 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Record's written reviews are positive against 67% of Ready's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Record ships an update every 2 weeks, Ready every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and June 3, 2026 respectively.
