# Peech vs Speech

The clearest difference is rating: Peech at 4.4 against Speech's 3.5. Peech also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (8.6K vs 8). Speech's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Peech sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Speech sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Peech holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Peech has 8.6K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Peech ships an update monthly, Speech every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and June 9, 2026 respectively.
