Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MyHDB at 3.1 against hiLife's 2.1. hiLife's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 10%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads 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.
MyHDB holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of MyHDB's written reviews are positive against 33% of hiLife's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MyHDB ships an update every 2 months, hiLife monthly. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
