Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Listend at none against Concert Archives's shown. Listend also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Concert Archives's advantage is ratings volume (991 vs 2) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Concert Archives sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Listend sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Listend holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Concert Archives has 991 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Concert Archives's written reviews are positive against 50% of Listend's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Concert Archives ships an update every 6 days, Listend every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
