Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: U Mower at 100% against Aiper's 47%. Aiper's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 2.3) and ratings volume (260 vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Aiper holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Aiper has 260 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Aiper's written reviews are positive against 100% of U Mower's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Aiper ships an update every 3 weeks, U Mower fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
