# FrameMagic vs Mixoo

The clearest difference is ads: FrameMagic at none against Mixoo's shown. FrameMagic also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Mixoo's advantage is review sentiment (87% vs 62%) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FrameMagic sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Mixoo sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Mixoo holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mixoo has 7K ratings behind it against 890, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 62% of FrameMagic's written reviews are positive against 87% of Mixoo's.

FrameMagic ships an update every 5 days, Mixoo every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
