All Octave copies should be free, so that Octave's users can also be
free. Octave copies can be commercial, but must remain free. If you
know of a non-free copy of Octave, please alert us, as this would be a
GPL violation.

iOS presents a particular problem, because it's a locked-down OS,
which does not allow its users to be free. There are ways to jailbreak
iOS, but Apple scares its customers into thinking that jailbreaking is
a harmful thing to do.

If you can jailbreak your iOS device, you might be able to find an
Octave copy for that device. I don't know of someone who makes it, but
the people who are making Mac OS X binaries might know.
