If a one-time purchase is non-negotiable for you, Poker Income still wins on that single point — StackWise is a subscription. Everything else — active development, cross-platform parity, and honest variance stats — is where StackWise pulls ahead.
What Poker Income got right
Poker Income was a genuinely good tracker, and two things kept people loyal: a $9.99 one-time price with no subscription, and a simple, fast logging flow. Plenty of players bought it years ago and never looked back. We’re not going to pretend otherwise — if you hate subscriptions on principle, that’s a real and reasonable preference.
The problem: it stopped
Poker Income’s last meaningful update was in 2018. That’s years without support for new devices, OS changes, or fixes — a real risk for an app holding your entire results history. A tracker you’ll lean on for years should be one that’s still being worked on.
| StackWise | Poker Income | |
|---|---|---|
| Actively maintained | Yes — current release | No — last update 2018 |
| Pricing model | Subscription ($4.99/mo · $39.99/yr) | One-time (~$9.99) |
| Honest variance stats | Confidence ranges + sample-size labels | Standard stats |
| Privacy | No account, on-device only | “Data not collected” label |
| Platforms | iOS & Android, same features | iOS / Android / web |
What you gain by moving
Beyond active development, StackWise adds the thing no tracker of that era offered: honesty about variance. Instead of a confident win rate off a handful of sessions, you get a confidence range and a sample-size label, and the headline number only once your data supports it — see the confidence calculator for how that plays out.
We’re not going to spin the subscription as a feature. It’s the one place Poker Income’s model is friendlier. StackWise is free to start with no account, so you can decide whether the active development and honest stats are worth it before paying anything.
A tracker that’s still here in 2026 — and honest.
Actively maintained, cross-platform, and free to start with no account. Try StackWise and see if it earns the switch.
