Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Figgy Browser at 4.9 against Obsidian Web Clipper's 4.3. Figgy Browser also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 9 days).

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. Figgy Browser sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Obsidian Web Clipper asks for nothing beyond the download.
Figgy Browser holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Obsidian Web Clipper has 105 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Obsidian Web Clipper's written reviews are positive against 63% of Figgy Browser's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Obsidian Web Clipper ships an update every 9 days, Figgy Browser every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
