Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Evolutioner at 4.8 against Self's 4.1. Evolutioner also leads on review sentiment (68% vs 57%) and ratings volume (1.7K vs 258). Self's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Evolutioner sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Self sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Evolutioner holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Evolutioner has 1.7K ratings behind it against 258, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of Evolutioner's written reviews are positive against 57% of Self's.
Evolutioner ships an update fortnightly, Self weekly. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
