Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Z97.1 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Z97.1's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hot 103.7's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Z97.1 ships an update every 24 months, Hot 103.7 every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
