ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Split the Pic holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grid Maker has 191 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Grid Maker's written reviews are positive against 6% of Split the Pic's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Grid Maker ships an update weekly, Split the Pic every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
