Verdict
Paradex and AntarcticEX both sit at 3.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Paradex's written reviews are positive against 50% of AntarcticEX's. AntarcticEX's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads 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.
AntarcticEX holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Paradex's written reviews are positive against 50% of AntarcticEX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Paradex ships an update every 2 months, AntarcticEX fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
