Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Magic 98.3 App holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Magic 98.3 App has 125 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Magic 93's written reviews are positive against 40% of Magic 98.3 App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Magic 93 ships an update every 4 months, Magic 98.3 App every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on June 4, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
