Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: App Update Access at 100% against Settings App's 0%. App Update Access also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Settings App's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support 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. Settings App sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. App Update Access asks for nothing beyond the download.
Settings App holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Settings App has 111 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of App Update Access's written reviews are positive against 0% of Settings App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
