Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CHIFE at 75% against OTAXI.'s 0%. CHIFE also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (80 vs 2). OTAXI.'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
OTAXI. holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CHIFE has 80 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of CHIFE's written reviews are positive against 0% of OTAXI.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CHIFE ships an update every 5 weeks, OTAXI. every 8 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
