# Noiseware vs Topaz for Mobile

The clearest difference is rating: Topaz for Mobile at 4.6 against Noiseware's 4.0. Topaz for Mobile also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (2.2K vs 4). Noiseware's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (46% vs 22%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Noiseware sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Topaz for Mobile sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Topaz for Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Topaz for Mobile has 2.2K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Noiseware's written reviews are positive against 22% of Topaz for Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Noiseware ships an update every 3 months, Topaz for Mobile weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
