Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Host Core at 3.0 against MRI Angus's 2.1. Host Core also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). MRI Angus's advantage is ratings volume (32 vs 3) and review sentiment (13% vs 0%). 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.
Host Core holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MRI Angus has 32 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of MRI Angus's written reviews are positive against 0% of Host Core's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MRI Angus ships an update monthly, Host Core fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
