Verdict
TOKEN2 NFC Burner and NFC Commander both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of NFC Commander's written reviews are positive against 40% of TOKEN2 NFC Burner's. NFC Commander also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). TOKEN2 NFC Burner's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 6 months vs every 34 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NFC Commander sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. TOKEN2 NFC Burner asks for nothing beyond the download.
TOKEN2 NFC Burner holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NFC Commander has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of TOKEN2 NFC Burner's written reviews are positive against 100% of NFC Commander's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TOKEN2 NFC Burner ships an update every 6 months, NFC Commander every 34 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
