Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IETFers at 5.0 against RFC View's 4.0. IETFers also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (4 vs 1). RFC View's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
IETFers holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of IETFers's written reviews are positive against 100% of RFC View's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
IETFers ships an update every 3 months, RFC View every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on July 20, 2026 and June 25, 2026 respectively.
