Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TAGTHAi at 1.6 against BEM MRT's 1.0. TAGTHAi also leads on ratings volume (26 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14 vs 16.6). BEM MRT's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, update cadence 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.
TAGTHAi holds the better App Store score, 1.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TAGTHAi has 26 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of BEM MRT's written reviews are positive against 23% of TAGTHAi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BEM MRT ships an update monthly, TAGTHAi every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
