# ByteFM vs Radio Lippe

The clearest difference is rating: Radio Lippe at 5.0 against ByteFM's 2.7. ByteFM's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 48%) and ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Radio Lippe holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ByteFM has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of ByteFM's written reviews are positive against 48% of Radio Lippe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ByteFM ships an update every 3 months, Radio Lippe every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
