AudioKey 2 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AudioService App has 28 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of AudioService App's written reviews are positive against 11% of AudioKey 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
AudioService App ships an update every 2 months, AudioKey 2 every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
