StreamTrackr vs TrueAchievements

StreamTrackr displays gaming achievements and trophies on a live stream through an OBS or Streamlabs browser-source overlay. It supports Steam, PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, and RetroAchievements. The Free plan includes four platforms, eight languages, four basic themes, achievement tracking, a persistent link, cloud save, and OBS/Streamlabs integration. A free, open-source Windows Companion app detects Steam achievements almost instantly and can bypass delays from Steam API polling. Pro adds a customization studio for adjusting badges, bars, text, and images, with live preview and no CSS, plus custom themes and animations. It also includes Twitch and Discord integrations, stream stats and goals, session exports, public recap pages, and achievement alerts. Recaps show game cover art, a timestamped unlock timeline, unlock pace, and rarity highlights. Pro is listed at $2.99 a month; its billing terms also say then €2.99/month, with no commitment. The pricing page advertises a free first month requiring a credit card, cancellation anytime, and a 14-day money-back guarantee. Pro’s stated 5–10 second polling depends on platform API responses and when games report unlocks; Steam may batch achievements and add minutes of delay.

TrueAchievements is a web-based Xbox community for tracking achievements and gaming accomplishments, alongside news, reviews, features, and achievement help. A free account provides game and achievement tracking, while members can organize game collections, follow progress across game series, and set scoring and completion goals. Tracking requires the Xbox profile's game and app history to be visible to everyone. The site hosts more than 3,000 community-created walkthroughs and achievement guides, with bookmarks that persist across devices. Its free Xbox One app includes a gamer homepage, game lists, achievement solutions, gaming sessions, and stats; it can open achievement solutions from the official Xbox One Achievements app. Users can view Xbox Store purchases and import them into game and DLC collections. Pro users can automate daily updates. A free account costs nothing. TrueAchievements Pro costs $3.99 a month and includes no ads, automatic Xbox syncing every 30 minutes, unlimited on-demand updates, and expanded game lists and trophy case. The site describes itself as independent from Microsoft and the Xbox team.
