# MixMaster A/B vs jAmpler

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MixMaster A/B at 100% against jAmpler's 60%. MixMaster A/B also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). jAmpler's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.2 vs 4.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MixMaster A/B sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and jAmpler sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

jAmpler holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of MixMaster A/B's written reviews are positive against 60% of jAmpler's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MixMaster A/B ships an update every 6 weeks, jAmpler every 3 months. Both last shipped on September 27, 2026.
