Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ShipStation Mobile at 4.6 against Chatra's 3.9. ShipStation Mobile also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (6.2K vs 14). Chatra's advantage is review sentiment (45% vs 15%) and monetization model (free vs freemium). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ShipStation Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ShipStation Mobile has 6.2K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of ShipStation Mobile's written reviews are positive against 45% of Chatra's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
ShipStation Mobile ships an update every 4 days, Chatra every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
