Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: i at 2.3 against SwitchMemory's 1.0. i also leads on ratings volume (789 vs 1). SwitchMemory's advantage is review sentiment (31% vs 15%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
i holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: i has 789 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of SwitchMemory's written reviews are positive against 15% of i's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SwitchMemory ships an update every 5 months, i every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
