Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: AMI at none against Westpac's shown. AMI also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Westpac's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 12%) and ratings volume (356 vs 10). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Westpac against 4.5 for AMI. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Westpac has 356 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 33% of Westpac's written reviews are positive against 12% of AMI's.
Westpac ships an update every 2 weeks, AMI monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
