# MLS vs Rechat

MLS and Rechat both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 92% of Rechat's written reviews are positive against 45% of MLS's. Rechat also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). MLS's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 1K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for MLS against 4.8 for Rechat. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MLS has 13K ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 45% of MLS's written reviews are positive against 92% of Rechat's.

MLS ships an update every 3 weeks, Rechat every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
