Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sleevd at none against Echo's 2. Sleevd also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%). Echo's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 9). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Echo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Sleevd asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Echo against 5.0 for Sleevd. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Echo has 2.1K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 83% of Echo's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sleevd's.
Echo ships an update fortnightly, Sleevd every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
