# Talky vs Music Practice

The clearest difference is rating: Music Practice at 5.0 against Talky's 4.4. Talky's advantage is ratings volume (32 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Talky sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Music Practice sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Music Practice holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Talky has 32 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Talky ships an update weekly, Music Practice every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
