# Memory! vs Memory Match

The clearest difference is update cadence: Memory Match at every 6 days against Memory!'s every 4 months. Memory Match also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Memory!'s advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 50%) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 34). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Memory! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Memory Match sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Memory Match holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Memory! has 2.8K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Memory!'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Memory Match's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Memory! ships an update every 4 months, Memory Match every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and August 10, 2026 respectively.
