Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AQUANEST at 3.0 against myAI®'s 2.3. AQUANEST also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). myAI®'s advantage is ratings volume (290 vs 1) and review sentiment (21% vs 5%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
AQUANEST holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: myAI® has 290 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of myAI®'s written reviews are positive against 5% of AQUANEST's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
myAI® ships an update every 3 months, AQUANEST monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
