# UNUM vs Griddy

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Griddy at 84% against UNUM's 36%. Griddy also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (15 vs 18.0). UNUM's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#85 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. UNUM sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Griddy sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Griddy holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 12K and 2.7K respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 36% of UNUM's written reviews are positive against 84% of Griddy's.

UNUM ships an update fortnightly, Griddy every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
