# Speech Blubs vs Speech Tutor Pro

The clearest difference is price: Speech Blubs at Free against Speech Tutor Pro's $69.99. Speech Blubs also leads on ratings volume (57K vs 83) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). Speech Tutor Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

Speech Blubs is free to download; Speech Tutor Pro costs $69.99 up front. Speech Blubs sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $14.49 per month. Speech Tutor Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.

Speech Blubs holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speech Blubs has 57K ratings behind it against 83, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Speech Blubs's written reviews are positive against 85% of Speech Tutor Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Speech Blubs ships an update every 8 days, Speech Tutor Pro monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
