Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Connecting at 4.4 against Likey's 2.3. Connecting also leads on ratings volume (2.2K vs 63) and device support (3 vs 1). Likey's advantage is review sentiment (63% vs 42%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Connecting sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.59 per 7 days and Likey sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Connecting holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connecting has 2.2K ratings behind it against 63, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Connecting's written reviews are positive against 63% of Likey's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Connecting ships an update fortnightly, Likey every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
