Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Live Speech to Text at Free against Range's $1.99. Live Speech to Text also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and rating (4.1 vs 3.8). Range's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 15) and review sentiment (67% vs 48%). On ads and iOS requirement 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
Live Speech to Text is free to download; Range costs $1.99 up front. Live Speech to Text sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Range asks for nothing beyond the download.
Live Speech to Text holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Live Speech to Text has 126 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Range's written reviews are positive against 48% of Live Speech to Text's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Range ships an update every 6 months, Live Speech to Text fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
