Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
TRNDlabs FADER holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iBrary Link has 865 ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 16% of iBrary Link's written reviews are positive against 14% of TRNDlabs FADER's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
