# Congas vs EZ Trigger

The clearest difference is price: Congas at Free against EZ Trigger's $9.99. Congas also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 24 months) and ratings volume (359 vs 9). EZ Trigger's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (4.1 vs 3.7). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Congas is free to download; EZ Trigger costs $9.99 up front. Congas sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. EZ Trigger asks for nothing beyond the download.

EZ Trigger holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Congas has 359 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Congas's written reviews are positive against 70% of EZ Trigger's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Congas ships an update every 2 months, EZ Trigger every 24 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
