Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Dista at 4.8 against Ghar Bazaar's 3.1. Dista also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 77). Ghar Bazaar's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Dista holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dista has 1.1K ratings behind it against 77, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Dista's written reviews are positive against 54% of Ghar Bazaar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Dista ships an update fortnightly, Ghar Bazaar every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
