# OpenKey vs JSX

The clearest difference is review sentiment: OpenKey at 73% against JSX's 28%. OpenKey also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (3.1K vs 119). JSX's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

OpenKey holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OpenKey has 3.1K ratings behind it against 119, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 73% of OpenKey's written reviews are positive against 28% of JSX's.

OpenKey ships an update every 2 months, JSX every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
