Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Helix Jump at 1.5M against Stack's 61K. Helix Jump also leads on chart position (#30 vs #151). Stack's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 41%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stack sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Helix Jump sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Helix Jump holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Helix Jump has 1.5M ratings behind it against 61K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Stack's written reviews are positive against 41% of Helix Jump's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Stack ships an update every 11 days, Helix Jump weekly. Both last shipped on November 10, 2026.
