# 简单搜索 vs 收音机

The clearest difference is rating: 收音机 at 4.6 against 简单搜索's 3.7. 收音机 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (946 vs 42). 简单搜索's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 收音机 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 简单搜索 asks for nothing beyond the download.

收音机 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 收音机 has 946 ratings behind it against 42, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 42% of 简单搜索's written reviews are positive against 50% of 收音机's.

简单搜索 ships an update weekly, 收音机 every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
