Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: IFTAfy at 100% against Direct Freight Load Board's 43%. IFTAfy also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 weeks). Direct Freight Load Board's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (3.5 vs 3.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Direct Freight Load Board sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $39.00 per month and IFTAfy sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Direct Freight Load Board holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Direct Freight Load Board has 48 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Direct Freight Load Board's written reviews are positive against 100% of IFTAfy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Direct Freight Load Board ships an update every 4 weeks, IFTAfy every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
