Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: cred.ai at 4.8 against TomoCredit's 3.5. cred.ai also leads on ratings volume (6.8K vs 578). TomoCredit's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement 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.
cred.ai holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: cred.ai has 6.8K ratings behind it against 578, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of cred.ai's written reviews are positive against 67% of TomoCredit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
cred.ai ships an update every 2 months, TomoCredit every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
