Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Big Team Challenge at 4.8 against EWH's 2.5. Big Team Challenge also leads on ratings volume (1.2K vs 107). EWH's advantage is review sentiment (47% vs 15%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Big Team Challenge holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Big Team Challenge has 1.2K ratings behind it against 107, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of EWH's written reviews are positive against 15% of Big Team Challenge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
