Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tabless at none against Search's 3. Tabless also leads on ratings volume (12 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). Search's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Search sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Tabless asks for nothing beyond the download.
Search holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tabless has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
Tabless ships an update every 5 months, Search every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and August 22, 2026 respectively.
