Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SQL Server Mobile Client at 4.2 against Pixeur's 3.0. SQL Server Mobile Client also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (56 vs 2). Pixeur's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (85% vs 77%). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SQL Server Mobile Client sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Pixeur sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SQL Server Mobile Client holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SQL Server Mobile Client has 56 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of SQL Server Mobile Client's written reviews are positive against 85% of Pixeur's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SQL Server Mobile Client ships an update every 3 weeks, Pixeur every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
