# Pitch Master vs MelodyMode

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MelodyMode at 100% against Pitch Master's 32%. MelodyMode also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Pitch Master's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 10 days). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pitch Master sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and MelodyMode sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
