Verdict
MLS and Tethermore both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Tethermore's written reviews are positive against 57% of MLS's. Tethermore also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). MLS's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (11K vs 3). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
