Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Userscripts at none against CSDN's 16. Userscripts also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (78% vs 45%). CSDN's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, device support 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. CSDN sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month. Userscripts asks for nothing beyond the download.
CSDN holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CSDN has 1.7K ratings behind it against 181, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of CSDN's written reviews are positive against 78% of Userscripts's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CSDN ships an update weekly, Userscripts monthly. Both last shipped on September 28, 2026.
