# منشی vs Ayah Player

The clearest difference is update cadence: Ayah Player at every 8 days against منشی's every 13 months. منشی's advantage is ratings volume (7 vs 1) and iOS requirement (7 vs 17.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for منشی against 5.0 for Ayah Player. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: منشی has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

منشی ships an update every 13 months, Ayah Player every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
