Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: i at 789 against iD Stick's 9. i also leads on rating (2.3 vs 2.0) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 6 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

i holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: i has 789 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of i's written reviews are positive against 17% of iD Stick's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

i ships an update every 3 months, iD Stick every 6 months. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
