Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Alliance at none against AirAttack 2's shown. Alliance also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (23K vs 616). AirAttack 2's advantage is iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.6). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AirAttack 2 sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Alliance sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for AirAttack 2 against 4.7 for Alliance. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Alliance has 23K ratings behind it against 616, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 85% and 85% positive.
AirAttack 2 ships an update every 9 months, Alliance every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
