Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TingYue at 4.5 against EasyRepeat's 3.0. TingYue also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (413 vs 4). EasyRepeat's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 24) and ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. TingYue sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. EasyRepeat asks for nothing beyond the download.
TingYue holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TingYue has 413 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of EasyRepeat's written reviews are positive against 66% of TingYue's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EasyRepeat ships an update every 2 months, TingYue every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
