Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QIAM at none against Zipquote's 1. QIAM also leads on ratings volume (5 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). Zipquote's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 19 months). On price, rating, ads and device support 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. Zipquote sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. QIAM asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for QIAM against 5.0 for Zipquote. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QIAM has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
QIAM ships an update every 19 months, Zipquote fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
