# Clear Wave vs Speaker Cleaner

Clear Wave and Speaker Cleaner both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Speaker Cleaner's written reviews are positive against 21% of Clear Wave's. Speaker Cleaner also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Clear Wave's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 83). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clear Wave sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Speaker Cleaner sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Clear Wave holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clear Wave has 2.4K ratings behind it against 83, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Clear Wave's written reviews are positive against 100% of Speaker Cleaner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Clear Wave ships an update monthly, Speaker Cleaner every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
