Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: LMD Chat at 3.7 against Hiring's 3.3. LMD Chat also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). Hiring's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
LMD Chat holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of Hiring's written reviews are positive against 33% of LMD Chat's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hiring ships an update monthly, LMD Chat every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
