Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Strumn at 5.0 against iGig's 4.4. Strumn also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). iGig's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Strumn holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 20 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Strumn's written reviews are positive against 100% of iGig's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Strumn ships an update every 3 weeks, iGig every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 12, 2026.
