Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: PellaPro at fortnightly against IBS 2026's every 12 months. PellaPro also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). IBS 2026's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
