Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Paraco at 4.5 against Bottini Fuel's 2.3. Paraco also leads on ratings volume (186 vs 4). Bottini Fuel's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 14%) and update cadence (every 17 months vs every 45 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Paraco holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paraco has 186 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Paraco's written reviews are positive against 50% of Bottini Fuel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Paraco ships an update every 45 months, Bottini Fuel every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
