We look at three things: what a tool says about itself, what its users say, and what we think. This page shows how each one works.
Each review has a label near the top. It tells you how much we have done with the tool.
Prices, plans, free trials, apps and rules come only from the tool's own pages. Each fact shows the date we checked it and a link to where we found it.
If a tool doesn't say something, or its own pages don't agree, we leave it out. Prices change a lot, so check the tool's site before you pay.
Some tools charge a different price in the App Store than on the web. When a price comes from the App Store, we say so.
The "What it says it offers" list on each review is in the tool's own words. We link to where it says each thing. We don't repeat claims about how much you'll win, because we can't check them.
The rest of the review is our own view, based on what we found.
Star ratings come from the App Store. We only show them when an app has at least 20 ratings.
We also read recent public reviews and posts about each tool. We keep only real opinions and drop ads and the company's own posts. A review page shows the good, mixed and bad split once we have at least 10. People with a problem post more often, so keep that in mind.
Our team picks the order. We look at how much a tool does, how clear its prices and rules are, what users say, and who it fits best.
Some tools pay us when you sign up. That can affect which tools we show and where. It never changes a tool's facts, its ratings or our calculators. See our advertising disclosure.
Every tool we review has a rank number. Our top two are our favorites. The rest are grouped by what they do, in rank order.
See something wrong? Tell us with the contact form. We check the tool's pages again and fix it. Tool makers can reach us here.
