Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: eBesa at 100% against T's 31%. T's advantage is ratings volume (80 vs 2) and rating (4.2 vs 4.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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.
T holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: T has 80 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of T's written reviews are positive against 100% of eBesa's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
