# ResX vs AutoRes

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AutoRes at none against ResX's 8. AutoRes also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 73%). ResX's advantage is ratings volume (764 vs 11) and chart position (#16 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ResX sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. AutoRes asks for nothing beyond the download.

AutoRes holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ResX has 764 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 73% of ResX's written reviews are positive against 100% of AutoRes's.

ResX ships an update every 2 weeks, AutoRes every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
