Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: MLS at every 3 weeks against IDX Boost's every 7 months. MLS also leads on ratings volume (13K vs 4). IDX Boost's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads 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 — 4.9 for MLS against 5.0 for IDX Boost. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MLS has 13K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
MLS ships an update every 3 weeks, IDX Boost every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
