Bookkeeping・熊猫记账・PandaBook also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 91%). MinExp's advantage is ratings volume (26 vs 3).

Both are free to download. MinExp sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Bookkeeping・熊猫记账・PandaBook sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
