Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Ping at none against iNetTools's shown. Ping also leads on review sentiment (85% vs 68%). iNetTools's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 376). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
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. iNetTools sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ping sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
iNetTools holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iNetTools has 5.6K ratings behind it against 376, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of iNetTools's written reviews are positive against 85% of Ping's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iNetTools ships an update every 2 months, Ping every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
