Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
FutureFolio Viewer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nest Egg Home Inventory Lite has 170 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of FutureFolio Viewer's written reviews are positive against 45% of Nest Egg Home Inventory Lite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FutureFolio Viewer ships an update every 2 months, Nest Egg Home Inventory Lite every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
