Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Memory Tiles at Free against Matcha's $1.99. Memory Tiles also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%) and ratings volume (45 vs 6). Matcha's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Matcha holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Memory Tiles has 45 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Matcha's written reviews are positive against 100% of Memory Tiles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Matcha ships an update every 4 days, Memory Tiles every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
