Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Tantra 112 at weekly against BuddhaPath's every 2 months. Tantra 112 also leads on ratings volume (71 vs 11). BuddhaPath's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BuddhaPath sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Tantra 112 sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for BuddhaPath against 5.0 for Tantra 112. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tantra 112 has 71 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
BuddhaPath ships an update every 2 months, Tantra 112 weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
