# Parrot vs Keymagine

The clearest difference is ads: Keymagine at none against Parrot's shown. Keymagine also leads on review sentiment (55% vs 45%). Parrot's advantage is ratings volume (19K vs 295) and chart position (#62 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Parrot sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and Keymagine sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Parrot against 4.8 for Keymagine. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Parrot has 19K ratings behind it against 295, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 45% of Parrot's written reviews are positive against 55% of Keymagine's.

Parrot ships an update weekly, Keymagine every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 8, 2026.
