Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tessie at 64% against EVSEMaster's 23%. Tessie also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (9.6K vs 4). EVSEMaster's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 17) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads and device support 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. Tessie sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. EVSEMaster asks for nothing beyond the download.
EVSEMaster holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tessie has 9.6K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of EVSEMaster's written reviews are positive against 64% of Tessie's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EVSEMaster ships an update every 5 weeks, Tessie weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
