Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Moku at 5.0 against Mathpix Snip's 4.5. Mathpix Snip's advantage is review sentiment (76% vs 50%) and ratings volume (141 vs 6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Moku holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mathpix Snip has 141 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Mathpix Snip's written reviews are positive against 50% of Moku's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mathpix Snip ships an update every 5 weeks, Moku every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 6, 2026 and August 8, 2026 respectively.
