Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SalonTouch Studio at 5.0 against Demandforce's 4.6. Demandforce's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (170 vs 3). 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.
SalonTouch Studio holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Demandforce has 170 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of SalonTouch Studio's written reviews are positive against 67% of Demandforce's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SalonTouch Studio ships an update every 15 months, Demandforce every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
