# Web DevTools+ vs HTML Viewer

The clearest difference is rating: Web DevTools+ at 5.0 against HTML Viewer's 4.5. Web DevTools+ also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). HTML Viewer's advantage is ratings volume (90 vs 2) and chart position (#68 vs unranked). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HTML Viewer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Web DevTools+ asks for nothing beyond the download.

Web DevTools+ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HTML Viewer has 90 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Web DevTools+ ships an update every 5 days, HTML Viewer every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
