Verdict
The Cell and mozaikApp both sit at 4.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of The Cell's written reviews are positive against 58% of mozaikApp's. The Cell also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). mozaikApp's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (142 vs 4). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. mozaikApp sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. The Cell asks for nothing beyond the download.
mozaikApp holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: mozaikApp has 142 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of The Cell's written reviews are positive against 58% of mozaikApp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
The Cell ships an update every 5 months, mozaikApp every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
