# iWantTFC vs TBONX

The clearest difference is rating: iWantTFC at 3.9 against TBONX's 1.5. iWantTFC also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 25) and review sentiment (20% vs 0%). TBONX's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iWantTFC sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and TBONX sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iWantTFC holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iWantTFC has 1.3K ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 20% of iWantTFC's written reviews are positive against 0% of TBONX's.

iWantTFC ships an update every 11 days, TBONX monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
