# Kadama vs Transcript

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kadama at none against Transcript's 3. Kadama also leads on ratings volume (3.7K vs 395) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Transcript's advantage is review sentiment (76% vs 66%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Transcript sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Kadama asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Kadama against 4.6 for Transcript. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kadama has 3.7K ratings behind it against 395, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 66% of Kadama's written reviews are positive against 76% of Transcript's.

Kadama ships an update every 11 days, Transcript every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
