# MORPH vs FaceApp

The clearest difference is monetization model: FaceApp at free with in-app purchases against MORPH's subscription. FaceApp also leads on ratings volume (1.8M vs 4.9K) and chart position (#9 vs unranked). MORPH's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MORPH sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and FaceApp sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 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 — 4.6 for MORPH against 4.7 for FaceApp. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FaceApp has 1.8M ratings behind it against 4.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 49% of MORPH's written reviews are positive against 47% of FaceApp's.

MORPH ships an update weekly, FaceApp fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
