Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Meraki at 4.7 against Temp Stick's 3.6. Meraki also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 95). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Meraki holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Meraki has 1.4K ratings behind it against 95, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 56% of Meraki's written reviews are positive against 51% of Temp Stick's.
Meraki ships an update fortnightly, Temp Stick every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
