Verdict

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
PPL2GO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of PPL2GO's written reviews are positive against 100% of Thousand Oaks Library's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
