Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: D at 100% against OBDeleven's 14%. D also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and in-app purchases (none vs 13). OBDeleven's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads 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. OBDeleven sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $69.99 per year. D asks for nothing beyond the download.
D holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OBDeleven has 1.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 14% of OBDeleven's written reviews are positive against 100% of D's.
OBDeleven ships an update fortnightly, D monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
