Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Microphone at 4.2 against Megaphone's 2.8. Microphone also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months). Megaphone's advantage is review sentiment (52% vs 29%) and ratings volume (593 vs 107). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Megaphone sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Microphone sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Microphone holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Megaphone has 593 ratings behind it against 107, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Megaphone's written reviews are positive against 29% of Microphone's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Megaphone ships an update every 3 months, Microphone every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
