# MJLauncher vs Echo

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MJLauncher at none against Echo's 10. MJLauncher also leads on ratings volume (117 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Echo's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.0 vs 3.8). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Echo sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. MJLauncher asks for nothing beyond the download.

Echo holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MJLauncher has 117 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

MJLauncher ships an update fortnightly, Echo every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
