Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: HiClean at freemium against Multitool's subscription. HiClean also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence 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. Multitool sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and HiClean sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Multitool holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 163 and 151 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Multitool's written reviews are positive against 100% of HiClean's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Multitool ships an update every 2 weeks, HiClean weekly. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
