Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Space Auto at 100% against Inventory+ Mobile's 30%. Space Auto also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and device support (4 vs 1). Inventory+ Mobile's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (525 vs 16). 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.
Inventory+ Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Inventory+ Mobile has 525 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Inventory+ Mobile's written reviews are positive against 100% of Space Auto's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Inventory+ Mobile ships an update every 3 weeks, Space Auto weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
