Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Aave at 4.7 against TAO.com's 4.3. Aave also leads on review sentiment (66% vs 40%) and ratings volume (330 vs 29). TAO.com's advantage is iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Aave holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Aave has 330 ratings behind it against 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of TAO.com's written reviews are positive against 66% of Aave's.
TAO.com ships an update every 2 weeks, Aave weekly. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
