# 弹琴吧 vs CleverJazz

The clearest difference is rating: 弹琴吧 at 4.6 against CleverJazz's 4.2. 弹琴吧 also leads on ratings volume (268 vs 5) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). CleverJazz's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 82%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 弹琴吧 sells 27 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and CleverJazz sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

弹琴吧 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 弹琴吧 has 268 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of 弹琴吧's written reviews are positive against 100% of CleverJazz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

弹琴吧 ships an update every 11 days, CleverJazz weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
