Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Google Chrome at 61% against iFox Browser's 17%. Google Chrome also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 months). iFox Browser's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, 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
Both are free to download. iFox Browser sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Google Chrome sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Google Chrome holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google Chrome has 3.9M ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 17% of iFox Browser's written reviews are positive against 61% of Google Chrome's.
iFox Browser ships an update every 6 months, Google Chrome weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 10, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
