Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Haripath at 4.9 against Maher's 4.0. Haripath also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). Maher's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 months vs every 41 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Maher sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 3 months. Haripath asks for nothing beyond the download.
Haripath holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Haripath has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Haripath's written reviews are positive against 100% of Maher's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Haripath ships an update every 41 months, Maher every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on August 20, 2026 and July 25, 2026 respectively.
