AutoWeb

AutoWeb turns your iPhone into a browser that works for you โ not the other way around. Most browsers wait for you to tap, scroll, and refresh. AutoWeb does it for you. Set up automation once, then let it run while you do something else: watch a page for restocks, keep scrolling through a long feed, or refresh a booking page without lifting a finger. AUTOMATION THAT ACTUALLY AUTOMATES โข Auto-Tap โ pick one or more elements on any page and let AutoWeb click them for you, in sequence or all at once โข Auto-Scroll โ set a speed and AutoWeb scrolls hands-free, perfect for long articles, feeds, or monitoring โข Auto-Refresh โ set an interval and AutoWeb reloads the page automatically, so you never miss a change READ WITHOUT THE NOISE Reader Mode strips banners, pop-ups, and clutter, leaving just the article โ in the font, size, and theme you choose (Light, Sepia, Dark, or AMOLED โ Sepia/Dark/AMOLED with Pro). BUILT LIKE A REAL BROWSER Multiple tabs, bookmarks, and browsing history, all in one clean interface. Switch tabs instantly, bookmark your favorite sites, and pick up where you left off. GO PRO FOR THE FULL EXPERIENCE The free version lets you try every feature with sensible limits (3 tabs, 2 bookmarks, 1 auto-tap target, preset automation speed). Upgrade to AutoWeb Pro for: โข Multiple auto-tap targets with sequential or simultaneous mode โข Custom scroll speed and refresh interval โข Unlimited tabs and bookmarks โข Up to 100 saved history items โข Custom reader themes and fonts โข No in-app ads AutoWeb Pro is offered as an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or annual); a free trial may be offered to new subscribers where available. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and can be managed anytime in your Apple ID account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RefreshMate at none against AutoWeb's 2. RefreshMate also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
