# MarkMark vs Desktop

The clearest difference is rating: Desktop at 5.0 against MarkMark's 4.7. MarkMark's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MarkMark sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Desktop sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Desktop holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MarkMark has 17 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

MarkMark ships an update every 2 weeks, Desktop weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
