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.
DEEPSMART holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TP has 59 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of TP's written reviews are positive against 0% of DEEPSMART's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TP ships an update every 3 weeks, DEEPSMART monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and June 25, 2026 respectively.
