Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
REDD Intelligence holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Refinitiv Eikon has 36 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Refinitiv Eikon's written reviews are positive against 0% of REDD Intelligence's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Refinitiv Eikon ships an update every 2 months, REDD Intelligence every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on June 9, 2026 and June 8, 2026 respectively.
