# Mach 1 Stores vs MAX PLUS!

The clearest difference is rating: Mach 1 Stores at 4.5 against MAX PLUS!'s 1.9. Mach 1 Stores also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). MAX PLUS!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Mach 1 Stores holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MAX PLUS! has 161 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Mach 1 Stores's written reviews are positive against 6% of MAX PLUS!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Mach 1 Stores ships an update every 2 months, MAX PLUS! monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
