Talking Doge holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Talking Doge has 470 ratings behind it against 36, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Santa Rhythm's written reviews are positive against 84% of Talking Doge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Santa Rhythm ships an update every 2 weeks, Talking Doge every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
