# Dial vs Last Call

The clearest difference is rating: Last Call at 4.7 against Dial's 3.3. Last Call also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 months) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Dial's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (23 vs 7). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dial sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Last Call sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Last Call holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 23 and 7 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 43% of Dial's written reviews are positive against 50% of Last Call's.

Dial ships an update every 4 months, Last Call every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
