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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
BluLateral holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bi has 28 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Bi's written reviews are positive against 50% of BluLateral's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bi ships an update every 2 months, BluLateral every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
