Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CHAEVI at 2.3 against E's 1.0. CHAEVI also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). E's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (44% vs 25%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support 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.
CHAEVI holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CHAEVI has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of E's written reviews are positive against 25% of CHAEVI's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
E ships an update monthly, CHAEVI every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
