Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SweetEscape at 4.8 against Lio Partner's 3.0. SweetEscape also leads on ratings volume (204 vs 2). Lio Partner's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
SweetEscape holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SweetEscape has 204 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of SweetEscape's written reviews are positive against 69% of Lio Partner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
