# Chooser! vs Raffle Name

The clearest difference is monetization model: Chooser! at free with in-app purchases against Raffle Name's subscription. Chooser! also leads on ratings volume (39K vs 5.3K) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 weeks). Raffle Name's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chooser! sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Raffle Name sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Raffle Name holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chooser! has 39K ratings behind it against 5.3K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of Chooser!'s written reviews are positive against 58% of Raffle Name's.

Chooser! ships an update every 2 weeks, Raffle Name every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
