Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Cosmic Flip at none against Mars's shown. Cosmic Flip also leads on update cadence (daily vs monthly) and review sentiment (100% vs 91%). Mars's advantage is ratings volume (22K vs 4) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Mars sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Cosmic Flip sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Cosmic Flip holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mars has 22K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of Mars's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cosmic Flip's.
Mars ships an update monthly, Cosmic Flip daily. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
