# Cloudless Music vs songScout

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Cloudless Music at 5 against songScout's 1. Cloudless Music also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cloudless Music sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month and songScout sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Cloudless Music against 5.0 for songScout. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cloudless Music has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
