# App MyGroup vs CaptionCall

The clearest difference is ratings volume: CaptionCall at 3.7K against App MyGroup's 10. App MyGroup's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for App MyGroup against 4.8 for CaptionCall. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CaptionCall has 3.7K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 75% and 75% positive.

App MyGroup ships an update every 4 days, CaptionCall fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
