# First Table vs MiXR.

The clearest difference is review sentiment: First Table at 92% against MiXR.'s 11%. First Table also leads on rating (4.9 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (94 vs 4). MiXR.'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

First Table holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: First Table has 94 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 92% of First Table's written reviews are positive against 11% of MiXR.'s.

First Table ships an update fortnightly, MiXR. every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
