Verdict

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.
ZERO holds the better App Store score, 2.4 against 2.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 12 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of X80 DRONE's written reviews are positive against 29% of ZERO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
X80 DRONE ships an update every 4 months, ZERO every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
