Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Token Ring holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Black Hat Events has 138 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Token Ring's written reviews are positive against 25% of Black Hat Events's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Token Ring ships an update every 5 weeks, Black Hat Events weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
