Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: i at 2.4 against ZAFRO's 1.7. i also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). ZAFRO's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
i holds the better App Store score, 2.4 against 1.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 26 and 73 respectively.

i ships an update every 3 months, ZAFRO monthly. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
