ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hitty Knife holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hitty Knife has 4.3K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Small Square's written reviews are positive against 13% of Hitty Knife's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Small Square ships an update monthly, Hitty Knife every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
