# PinOut! vs Sky Stackers

The clearest difference is rating: Sky Stackers at 5.0 against PinOut!'s 4.2. Sky Stackers also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks). PinOut!'s advantage is ratings volume (7.1K vs 4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PinOut! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Sky Stackers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sky Stackers holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PinOut! has 7.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of PinOut!'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Sky Stackers's.

PinOut! ships an update every 2 weeks, Sky Stackers daily. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
