# Alpha Omega vs Neutralize +

The clearest difference is ads: Neutralize + at none against Alpha Omega's shown. Neutralize + also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%). Alpha Omega's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (5.7K vs 5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Alpha Omega sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Neutralize + sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Alpha Omega holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Alpha Omega has 5.7K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Alpha Omega's written reviews are positive against 100% of Neutralize +'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Alpha Omega ships an update monthly, Neutralize + every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and June 3, 2026 respectively.
