Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Morse Code Complete at 90 against Morse Coach's 1. Morse Code Complete also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Morse Coach's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 days). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Morse Code Complete sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Morse Coach sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Morse Coach holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Morse Code Complete has 90 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Morse Code Complete ships an update every 10 days, Morse Coach every 5 days. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
