# iMatch vs SoulMatcher

The clearest difference is rating: SoulMatcher at 4.9 against iMatch's 4.0. SoulMatcher also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (340 vs 14). iMatch's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (87% vs 50%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iMatch sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and SoulMatcher sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SoulMatcher holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SoulMatcher has 340 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of iMatch's written reviews are positive against 50% of SoulMatcher's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iMatch ships an update every 2 months, SoulMatcher every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
