Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: IITC at 3.6 against IITC's 3.0. IITC also leads on ratings volume (70 vs 2). IITC's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

IITC holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IITC has 70 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of IITC's written reviews are positive against 50% of IITC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

IITC ships an update every 3 months, IITC daily. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
