Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Applause ! at 79% against Laugh Party's 0%. Applause ! also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 31 months) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 2). Laugh Party's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Applause ! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Laugh Party asks for nothing beyond the download.
Laugh Party holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Applause ! has 1.4K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Laugh Party's written reviews are positive against 79% of Applause !'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Laugh Party ships an update every 31 months, Applause ! every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
