# LudyType vs MemoKey

The clearest difference is rating: MemoKey at 5.0 against LudyType's 4.7. LudyType's advantage is ratings volume (16 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LudyType sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and MemoKey sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MemoKey holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LudyType has 16 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

LudyType ships an update every 6 days, MemoKey every 4 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
