Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Havells DigiTap holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Havells DigiTap has 1.3K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Oakter's written reviews are positive against 50% of Havells DigiTap's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Oakter ships an update every 3 weeks, Havells DigiTap every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
