Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: RPD at 5.0 against Takeover's 4.3. RPD also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Takeover's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 80%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Takeover sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and RPD sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

RPD holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Takeover's written reviews are positive against 80% of RPD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Takeover ships an update every 3 days, RPD every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
