Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: AI Remove at 4.6 against Background Eraser's 4.0. AI Remove also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Background Eraser's advantage is ratings volume (6K vs 112). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Background Eraser sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and AI Remove sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AI Remove holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Background Eraser has 6K ratings behind it against 112, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Background Eraser's written reviews are positive against 59% of AI Remove's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Background Eraser ships an update monthly, AI Remove every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
