# Amazon Relay vs iDispatch

The clearest difference is review sentiment: iDispatch at 83% against Amazon Relay's 39%. iDispatch also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Amazon Relay's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iDispatch sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Amazon Relay asks for nothing beyond the download.

Amazon Relay holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Amazon Relay has 105K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of Amazon Relay's written reviews are positive against 83% of iDispatch's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Amazon Relay ships an update fortnightly, iDispatch every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and July 5, 2026 respectively.
