# iMemories vs Gospel Stream

The clearest difference is rating: iMemories at 4.9 against Gospel Stream's 4.2. iMemories also leads on ratings volume (9.3K vs 166) and chart position (#86 vs unranked). Gospel Stream's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iMemories sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Gospel Stream asks for nothing beyond the download.

iMemories holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iMemories has 9.3K ratings behind it against 166, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 41% and 42% positive.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
