Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: IAAPA Connect+ at Free against TAM Inventory Count's $0.99. IAAPA Connect+ also leads on rating (3.9 vs 2.0) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 weeks). TAM Inventory Count's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 15%) and device support (3 vs 1). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

IAAPA Connect+ holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IAAPA Connect+ has 98 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of TAM Inventory Count's written reviews are positive against 15% of IAAPA Connect+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TAM Inventory Count ships an update every 5 weeks, IAAPA Connect+ every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
