# Sing Sharp vs Tone

The clearest difference is ads: Tone at none against Sing Sharp's shown. Tone also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Sing Sharp's advantage is chart position (#169 vs unranked) and review sentiment (70% vs 59%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sing Sharp sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Tone sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tone holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14K and 10K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Sing Sharp's written reviews are positive against 59% of Tone's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
