Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Arpha Plus at none against WallPixel HD's 27. Arpha Plus also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 2 months). WallPixel HD's advantage is rating (1.9 vs 1.4) and ratings volume (172 vs 22). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

WallPixel HD holds the better App Store score, 1.9 against 1.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WallPixel HD has 172 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 7% of WallPixel HD's written reviews are positive against 10% of Arpha Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

WallPixel HD ships an update every 2 months, Arpha Plus every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
