Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: AI at none against ChatGPT's shown. AI also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). ChatGPT's advantage is ratings volume (12M vs 1.1K) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). 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. AI sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and ChatGPT sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $8.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ChatGPT holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChatGPT has 12M ratings behind it against 1.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 53% of AI's written reviews are positive against 71% of ChatGPT's.
AI ships an update every 9 days, ChatGPT every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
