Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CMD at none against Netli.fyi's 8. CMD also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). Netli.fyi's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#32 vs #122). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CMD holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CMD has 123 ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Netli.fyi's written reviews are positive against 95% of CMD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Netli.fyi ships an update every 2 months, CMD every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
