Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: QuickZoll at 3.0 against City Pop's 1.8. QuickZoll also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). City Pop's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
QuickZoll holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: City Pop has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of QuickZoll's written reviews are positive against 44% of City Pop's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
QuickZoll ships an update every 2 weeks, City Pop every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
