Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Mobile at every 3 weeks against i's every 3 months. Mobile also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 11.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume 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.
Mobile holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 2.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 80 and 38 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 12% of i's written reviews are positive against 9% of Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
i ships an update every 3 months, Mobile every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 5, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
