Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: MIDO at 100% against FoundersCard's 52%. MIDO also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). FoundersCard's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 1). 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.
MIDO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FoundersCard has 1.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 52% of FoundersCard's written reviews are positive against 100% of MIDO's.
FoundersCard ships an update every 3 weeks, MIDO fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
