Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AC Freedom at none against Intellimote's 8. AC Freedom also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.6). Intellimote's advantage is rating (1.9 vs 1.5) and review sentiment (30% vs 13%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Intellimote sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. AC Freedom asks for nothing beyond the download.
Intellimote holds the better App Store score, 1.9 against 1.5.

Written reviews point the same way: 13% of AC Freedom's written reviews are positive against 30% of Intellimote's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
