Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: IconChic at 4.2 against iTheme's 1.0. IconChic also leads on ratings volume (5.7K vs 2) and review sentiment (36% vs 25%). iTheme's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IconChic sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and iTheme sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
