Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Maraya مرايا at 4.1 against Alrayapoet's 3.0. Maraya مرايا also leads on ratings volume (32 vs 4). Alrayapoet's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (75% vs 51%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Maraya مرايا sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Alrayapoet asks for nothing beyond the download.
Maraya مرايا holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Maraya مرايا has 32 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Maraya مرايا's written reviews are positive against 75% of Alrayapoet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Maraya مرايا ships an update every 9 days, Alrayapoet fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
