Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: OBDocker at 47% against Torque App's 1%. OBDocker also leads on rating (4.2 vs 3.0) and monetization model (freemium vs subscription). Torque App's advantage is ratings volume (671 vs 17) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Torque App sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and OBDocker sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
OBDocker holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Torque App has 671 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 1% of Torque App's written reviews are positive against 47% of OBDocker's.
Torque App ships an update weekly, OBDocker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
