# SmatchMe vs Winner

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Winner at 78% against SmatchMe's 26%. Winner also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 2) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). SmatchMe's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Winner sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month. SmatchMe asks for nothing beyond the download.

SmatchMe holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Winner has 1.5K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of SmatchMe's written reviews are positive against 78% of Winner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

SmatchMe ships an update every 3 weeks, Winner every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
