Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Dazoo at 5.0 against tpPLC's 1.7. Dazoo also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). tpPLC's advantage is ratings volume (165 vs 1) and review sentiment (15% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dazoo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: tpPLC has 165 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of tpPLC's written reviews are positive against 0% of Dazoo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

tpPLC ships an update every 4 months, Dazoo every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and July 24, 2026 respectively.
