EasyMQTT is free to download; MQTT Terminal costs $0.99 up front. MQTT Terminal sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and EasyMQTT sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
EasyMQTT holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EasyMQTT has 36 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of MQTT Terminal's written reviews are positive against 36% of EasyMQTT's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MQTT Terminal ships an update monthly, EasyMQTT every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
