Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Maze at 100% against Eterna's 33%. Maze also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.7). Eterna's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Maze sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Eterna asks for nothing beyond the download.
Maze holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7.

Maze ships an update every 8 months, Eterna every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
