# Sing Sharp vs VocalTuner

Sing Sharp and VocalTuner both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 69% of Sing Sharp's written reviews are positive against 43% of VocalTuner's. Sing Sharp also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 577). VocalTuner's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, rating, ads 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 VocalTuner sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Sing Sharp against 4.4 for VocalTuner. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sing Sharp has 14K ratings behind it against 577, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 69% of Sing Sharp's written reviews are positive against 43% of VocalTuner's.

Sing Sharp ships an update every 5 weeks, VocalTuner every 8 days. Both last shipped on October 27, 2026.
