Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sprinkles Now! at none against Sbarro's shown. Sprinkles Now! also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Sbarro's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model 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.
Sbarro holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sbarro has 1.8K ratings behind it against 78, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Sprinkles Now!'s written reviews are positive against 22% of Sbarro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Sprinkles Now! ships an update every 7 months, Sbarro fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
