Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Ayah at none against Quran Majeed's shown. Quran Majeed's advantage is chart position (#52 vs #181) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume 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. Quran Majeed sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Ayah 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 — 4.7 for Quran Majeed against 4.8 for Ayah. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 241K and 108K respectively. Written reviews are what separate them: 83% of Quran Majeed's written reviews are positive against 89% of Ayah's.
Quran Majeed ships an update every 3 weeks, Ayah every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
