Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Detector at 87% against My Network's 8%. Detector also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (558 vs 1). My Network's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My Network holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Detector has 558 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Detector's written reviews are positive against 8% of My Network's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Detector ships an update every 10 days, My Network every 6 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
