# iTerminal vs iNet+

The clearest difference is ads: iNet+ at none against iTerminal's shown. iTerminal's advantage is ratings volume (117 vs 5). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iTerminal sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and iNet+ sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for iTerminal against 4.2 for iNet+. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iTerminal has 117 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 59% of iTerminal's written reviews are positive against 67% of iNet+'s.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
