# Stack vs Submarine Jump!

Stack and Submarine Jump! both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 53% of Stack's written reviews are positive against 22% of Submarine Jump!'s. Stack also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks) and chart position (#151 vs unranked). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stack sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and Submarine Jump! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Submarine Jump! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 59K and 42K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Stack's written reviews are positive against 22% of Submarine Jump!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Stack ships an update every 10 days, Submarine Jump! every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 14, 2026.
