Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ScareScore holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rumor has 53 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Rumor's written reviews are positive against 0% of ScareScore's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Rumor ships an update every 5 days, ScareScore every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
