Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: COJI robot at 4.1 against Droid Depot's 3.6. COJI robot also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 31 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). Droid Depot's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 40%) and ratings volume (638 vs 103). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
COJI robot holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Droid Depot has 638 ratings behind it against 103, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of COJI robot's written reviews are positive against 56% of Droid Depot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
COJI robot ships an update monthly, Droid Depot every 31 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
