Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Central Hudson Mobile at 3.1 against Bottini Fuel's 2.3. Central Hudson Mobile also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (690 vs 4). Bottini Fuel's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 11%). 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.
Central Hudson Mobile holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Central Hudson Mobile has 690 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of Central Hudson Mobile's written reviews are positive against 50% of Bottini Fuel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Central Hudson Mobile ships an update every 2 months, Bottini Fuel every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 23, 2026 respectively.
