Fact-check anything you see online in just two taps. HOW TO USE ACTUALLY: 1) Answer a few questions to expose the amount of misinformation you’re seeing online 2) Set up permissions and shortcuts for Actually to activate every time you double tap the back of your phone* 3) Double back tap to instantly get the verdict of what you’re seeing* Actually is designed to combat misinformation and bias without interrupting what you’re watching. By recording your screen, it already knows the context of what you’re watching, so when you back tap, it gets the verdict and a full explanation in just seconds. The verdict shows up in the Dynamic Island (or as a notification on older iPhones) to not interrupt what you’re watching, but can always be tapped to take you to the app for more details and exact sources. Privacy is one of Actually’s biggest priorities. Actually only records your screen while you allow it to, and we will never sell you information. *ACTUALLY’S BACK TAP TO FACT CHECK REQUIRES A SUBSCRIPTION. We offer all users 25 fact checks for free, along with a free trial after that. However, a paid subscription is the only way for us to cover the costs of researching claims made on thousands of videos a day without adding annoying ads. this is app store description I made. It may be too long so I may shorten it if doesn't look good on the App Store. Just have it be this for now or lmk if theres anything you dont like about it

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Actually at 5.0 against Speaklone's 4.7. Actually also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). Speaklone's advantage is ratings volume (9 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Speaklone sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Actually sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Actually holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speaklone has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
