Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TNMaker at 4.0 against Exam Reader's 3.3. TNMaker also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads 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

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Exam Reader sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and TNMaker sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TNMaker holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 12 and 27 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Exam Reader's written reviews are positive against 56% of TNMaker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Exam Reader ships an update every 2 weeks, TNMaker weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
