Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: UMANG India at 4.5 against iUSB's 2.9. UMANG India also leads on ratings volume (1.4K vs 25). iUSB's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (25% vs 11%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
UMANG India holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UMANG India has 1.4K ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of UMANG India's written reviews are positive against 25% of iUSB's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
UMANG India ships an update every 5 weeks, iUSB every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
