# MorseZapp vs Tiny Machinery

The clearest difference is update cadence: MorseZapp at every 10 days against Tiny Machinery's every 3 months. MorseZapp also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 54%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Tiny Machinery's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 4.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MorseZapp sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year and Tiny Machinery sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tiny Machinery holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 76 and 45 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of MorseZapp's written reviews are positive against 54% of Tiny Machinery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MorseZapp ships an update every 10 days, Tiny Machinery every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
