Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: tpMiFi at 77% against Sprout HR's 36%. tpMiFi also leads on ratings volume (801 vs 5) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). Sprout HR's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). 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.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sprout HR holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: tpMiFi has 801 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of tpMiFi's written reviews are positive against 36% of Sprout HR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

tpMiFi ships an update every 4 months, Sprout HR fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
