Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Helix Jump at 1.5M against Stack's 59K. Stack's advantage is review sentiment (53% vs 40%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stack sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and Helix Jump sells 11 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 59K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Stack's written reviews are positive against 40% 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 10 days, Helix Jump every 9 days. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
