# Starcrossed vs Maphrodite

The clearest difference is price: Starcrossed at Free against Maphrodite's $29.99. Starcrossed also leads on ratings volume (4.9K vs 8) and chart position (#91 vs unranked). Maphrodite's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 28%) and in-app purchases (none vs 17). On rating, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Starcrossed is free to download; Maphrodite costs $29.99 up front. Starcrossed sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Maphrodite asks for nothing beyond the download.

Starcrossed holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Starcrossed has 4.9K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Starcrossed's written reviews are positive against 67% of Maphrodite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Starcrossed ships an update every 5 days, Maphrodite every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 21, 2026.
