# TP vs ArkQuant

The clearest difference is rating: ArkQuant at 3.3 against TP's 2.3. ArkQuant also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). TP's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (32% vs 15%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ArkQuant sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. TP asks for nothing beyond the download.

ArkQuant holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TP has 59 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of TP's written reviews are positive against 15% of ArkQuant'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, ArkQuant every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
