Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Audio Function Generator at 4.7 against HemiSync's 4.2. Audio Function Generator also leads on ratings volume (2.2K vs 9) and device support (3 vs 1). HemiSync's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 77%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Audio Function Generator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and HemiSync sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Audio Function Generator holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Audio Function Generator has 2.2K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Audio Function Generator's written reviews are positive against 100% of HemiSync's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Audio Function Generator ships an update every 6 weeks, HemiSync every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
