Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: MoshUp at 84% against Avatarify's 54%. MoshUp also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Avatarify's advantage is ratings volume (45K vs 1.4K) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. MoshUp sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Avatarify sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Avatarify holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Avatarify has 45K ratings behind it against 1.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of MoshUp's written reviews are positive against 54% of Avatarify's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MoshUp ships an update every 2 months, Avatarify every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
