Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 1Panel at none against DockerTab's 2. 1Panel also leads on ratings volume (20 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). DockerTab's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DockerTab sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. 1Panel asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for 1Panel against 5.0 for DockerTab.

1Panel ships an update monthly, DockerTab every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
