# Quick Reviews vs Coax

The clearest difference is rating: Quick Reviews at 4.7 against Coax's 4.2. Coax's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium) and device support (5 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Quick Reviews sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per year and Coax sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Quick Reviews holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 19 and 41 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Quick Reviews's written reviews are positive against 77% of Coax's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
