Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: myArmsCache at 2.2K against NFA Suite's 10. NFA Suite's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
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. myArmsCache sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and NFA Suite sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
NFA Suite holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: myArmsCache has 2.2K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of myArmsCache's written reviews are positive against 100% of NFA Suite's.
myArmsCache ships an update every 3 weeks, NFA Suite every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
