Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Studio Three at 5.0 against Midtown's 4.2. Studio Three also leads on ratings volume (1.2K vs 74). Midtown's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (67% vs 55%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Studio Three holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Studio Three has 1.2K ratings behind it against 74, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Studio Three's written reviews are positive against 67% of Midtown's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 20, 2026 respectively.
