# iTSX vs DTE PowerControl

The clearest difference is review sentiment: DTE PowerControl at 68% against iTSX's 24%. DTE PowerControl also leads on rating (3.0 vs 2.3). iTSX's advantage is ratings volume (44 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, 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.

DTE PowerControl holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iTSX has 44 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 24% of iTSX's written reviews are positive against 68% of DTE PowerControl's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
