midimittr holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: midimittr has 54 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of midimittr's written reviews are positive against 100% of Soundcool OSC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
midimittr ships an update every 2 weeks, Soundcool OSC every 17 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
