# MOMO陌陌 vs avant regard

The clearest difference is review sentiment: avant regard at 100% against MOMO陌陌's 46%. avant regard also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and ads (none vs shown). MOMO陌陌's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 3) and chart position (#83 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MOMO陌陌 sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and avant regard sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

avant regard holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MOMO陌陌 has 13K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of MOMO陌陌's written reviews are positive against 100% of avant regard's.

MOMO陌陌 ships an update weekly, avant regard every 4 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
