# Tailscale vs VoiceScroll

The clearest difference is rating: Tailscale at 4.4 against VoiceScroll's 3.2. Tailscale also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (728 vs 11). VoiceScroll's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). On price, review sentiment, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VoiceScroll sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Tailscale asks for nothing beyond the download.

Tailscale holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tailscale has 728 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Tailscale's written reviews are positive against 67% of VoiceScroll's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Tailscale ships an update fortnightly, VoiceScroll every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
