# Choir Player vs Sing by Stingray

The clearest difference is rating: Sing by Stingray at 4.6 against Choir Player's 3.8. Sing by Stingray also leads on ratings volume (20K vs 12) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.6). Choir Player's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Choir Player sells 80 one-off in-app purchases and Sing by Stingray sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sing by Stingray holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sing by Stingray has 20K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Choir Player's written reviews are positive against 67% of Sing by Stingray's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Choir Player ships an update every 3 weeks, Sing by Stingray every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
