The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Frogie holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Frogie has 37 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Frogie's written reviews are positive against 67% of Run Dino's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Frogie ships an update every 56 months, Run Dino every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
