ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Phonemo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Magic Fingers Reimagined has 2.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Magic Fingers Reimagined's written reviews are positive against 33% of Phonemo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Magic Fingers Reimagined ships an update every 2 months, Phonemo every 9 months. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
