# Azkar vs Marstak

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Marstak at none against Azkar's 2. Marstak also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). Azkar's advantage is ratings volume (48K vs 1) and chart position (#170 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Azkar sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Marstak asks for nothing beyond the download.

Marstak holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Azkar has 48K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Azkar ships an update every 2 months, Marstak every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
