Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tuner+ at 82% against TuneIt's 27%. Tuner+ also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 4). TuneIt's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Tuner+ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and TuneIt sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TuneIt holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tuner+ has 1.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Tuner+'s written reviews are positive against 27% of TuneIt's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Tuner+ ships an update every 6 months, TuneIt every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
