Both are free to download. Sonolus sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Funky Maker sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.9 for Sonolus against 3.7 for Funky Maker. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sonolus has 1.1K ratings behind it against 84, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 51% of Sonolus's written reviews are positive against 66% of Funky Maker's.
Sonolus ships an update every 2 months, Funky Maker weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
