Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: AI Cleaner at free with in-app purchases against Cleaner MAX's subscription. AI Cleaner also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 30%). Cleaner MAX's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cleaner MAX sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and AI Cleaner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cleaner MAX holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cleaner MAX has 1.2K ratings behind it against 60, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Cleaner MAX's written reviews are positive against 67% of AI Cleaner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cleaner MAX ships an update every 3 weeks, AI Cleaner fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
