Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: HakkoAI at 4.0 against Plotwave's 3.3. HakkoAI also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and ratings volume (28 vs 8). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HakkoAI sells 36 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Plotwave sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HakkoAI holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 28 and 8 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of HakkoAI's written reviews are positive against 57% of Plotwave's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
