# Tablelist vs Apollo ID

The clearest difference is rating: Apollo ID at 4.0 against Tablelist's 3.1. Apollo ID also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (124 vs 40). Tablelist's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (87% vs 78%). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Apollo ID holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 40 and 124 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Tablelist's written reviews are positive against 78% of Apollo ID's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Tablelist ships an update every 3 weeks, Apollo ID fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
