# Test & Check for iPhone vs iDash

The clearest difference is rating: iDash at 4.5 against Test & Check for iPhone's 3.9. iDash also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). Test & Check for iPhone's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and ratings volume (42 vs 11). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Test & Check for iPhone sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and iDash sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iDash holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 42 and 11 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Test & Check for iPhone's written reviews are positive against 50% of iDash's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Test & Check for iPhone ships an update every 3 months, iDash every 3 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
