Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AUGmentecture at none against magicplan's 12. AUGmentecture also leads on review sentiment (60% vs 51%). magicplan's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

magicplan holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: magicplan has 41K ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of magicplan's written reviews are positive against 60% of AUGmentecture's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

magicplan ships an update weekly, AUGmentecture every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and July 18, 2026 respectively.
