Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Frequency Generator at 4.4 against Tuner ∞'s 3.6. Frequency Generator also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (83 vs 13). Tuner ∞'s advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 24%) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Frequency Generator holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Frequency Generator has 83 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Tuner ∞'s written reviews are positive against 24% of Frequency Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tuner ∞ ships an update every 2 months, Frequency Generator every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
