Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Chargefox at 5.0 against Elanga's 4.4. Chargefox also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 15 months). Elanga's advantage is ratings volume (38 vs 1) and review sentiment (36% vs 21%). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
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.
Chargefox holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Elanga has 38 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Chargefox's written reviews are positive against 36% of Elanga's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Chargefox ships an update every 11 days, Elanga every 15 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
