The clearest difference is rating: Second Chat at 5.0 against Contact[s] 2's 4.4. Second Chat also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 4 months). Contact[s] 2's advantage is ratings volume (42 vs 2) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Second Chat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Contact[s] 2 has 42 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Contact[s] 2's written reviews are positive against 50% of Second Chat's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Contact[s] 2 ships an update every 4 months, Second Chat every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
