# ChatScope vs Friend Check

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Friend Check at 100% against ChatScope's 33%. Friend Check also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). ChatScope's advantage is ratings volume (42 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ChatScope sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Friend Check sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Friend Check holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChatScope has 42 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of ChatScope's written reviews are positive against 100% of Friend Check's.

ChatScope ships an update fortnightly, Friend Check every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
