Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Termix at 4.8 against ServerCat's 4.6. ServerCat's advantage is chart position (#89 vs unranked) and ratings volume (1K vs 165). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads 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. ServerCat sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per year and Termix sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Termix holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ServerCat has 1K ratings behind it against 165, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 77% and 78% positive.
ServerCat ships an update every 6 days, Termix every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
