# Memrise vs CM TOEIC® MASTER

The clearest difference is ads: CM TOEIC® MASTER at none against Memrise's shown. CM TOEIC® MASTER also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Memrise's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (218K vs 3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Memrise sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month and CM TOEIC® MASTER sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Memrise holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Memrise has 218K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of Memrise's written reviews are positive against 57% of CM TOEIC® MASTER's.

Memrise ships an update fortnightly, CM TOEIC® MASTER every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 14, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
