# Audio Editor vs Noise Reducer

The clearest difference is rating: Noise Reducer at 4.5 against Audio Editor's 3.0. Noise Reducer also leads on ratings volume (3.6K vs 2). Audio Editor's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Audio Editor sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Noise Reducer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Noise Reducer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Noise Reducer has 3.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Audio Editor ships an update every 8 days, Noise Reducer weekly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
