ASUS Device Discovery holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 25 and 47 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of AiData's written reviews are positive against 18% of ASUS Device Discovery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AiData ships an update every 3 months, ASUS Device Discovery every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
