# Temp Mail vs EmailOnDeck

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Temp Mail at 2.5K against EmailOnDeck's 4. Temp Mail also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5). EmailOnDeck's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 76%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Temp Mail sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and EmailOnDeck sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Temp Mail holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Temp Mail has 2.5K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Temp Mail's written reviews are positive against 100% of EmailOnDeck's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Temp Mail ships an update every 2 months, EmailOnDeck every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
