Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PowerVision 4 at 4.9 against Code's 4.0. PowerVision 4 also leads on ratings volume (310 vs 5). Code's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Code sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and PowerVision 4 sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PowerVision 4 holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PowerVision 4 has 310 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 75% of Code's written reviews are positive against 78% of PowerVision 4's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
