# MPDA vs ADNOC Dist

The clearest difference is rating: MPDA at 4.0 against ADNOC Dist's 3.0. MPDA also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). ADNOC Dist's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly) and ratings volume (203 vs 14). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

MPDA holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ADNOC Dist has 203 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of MPDA's written reviews are positive against 15% of ADNOC Dist's.

MPDA ships an update monthly, ADNOC Dist every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
