Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Unicode+ at 5.0 against Unicode viewer's 3.0. Unicode+ also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 12 months). Unicode viewer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (33% vs 0%). On price, ratings volume 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. Unicode+ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Unicode viewer asks for nothing beyond the download.
Unicode+ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Unicode viewer's written reviews are positive against 0% of Unicode+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Unicode viewer ships an update every 12 months, Unicode+ every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
