The clearest difference is price: Springer at Free against Azkend's $2.99. Springer also leads on review sentiment (98% vs 86%). Azkend's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.2) and ads (none vs shown). On ratings volume, update cadence, in-app purchases 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
Springer is free to download; Azkend costs $2.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Azkend holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 16 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 98% of Springer's written reviews are positive against 86% of Azkend's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Springer ships an update every 3 months, Azkend every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
