Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Emergency Sounds + at 4.5 against A1 Panic Button's 3.6. Emergency Sounds + also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (84 vs 12). A1 Panic Button's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 25%) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 18 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Emergency Sounds + holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Emergency Sounds + has 84 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of A1 Panic Button's written reviews are positive against 25% of Emergency Sounds +'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
A1 Panic Button ships an update every 4 months, Emergency Sounds + every 18 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
