Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AirServer Connect at 2.2 against TestNav's 1.6. AirServer Connect also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 8 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
AirServer Connect holds the better App Store score, 2.2 against 1.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 104 and 258 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of TestNav's written reviews are positive against 22% of AirServer Connect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TestNav ships an update every 8 months, AirServer Connect fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
