Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Mythic Tools MTG at weekly against Scry One's every 5 months. Mythic Tools MTG also leads on ratings volume (3.7K vs 8) and rating (4.8 vs 4.6). Scry One's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mythic Tools MTG holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mythic Tools MTG has 3.7K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Scry One's written reviews are positive against 84% of Mythic Tools MTG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Scry One ships an update every 5 months, Mythic Tools MTG weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
