Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Morse eMail at $0.99 against HAM's $14.99. Morse eMail also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0). HAM's advantage is review sentiment (69% vs 50%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Morse eMail costs $0.99 and HAM $14.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Morse eMail holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HAM has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Morse eMail's written reviews are positive against 69% of HAM's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Morse eMail ships an update every 3 months, HAM monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
