Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Grid Tiles at none against Grid Maker's 9. Grid Tiles also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 176). Grid Maker's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and review sentiment (71% vs 55%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Grid Tiles holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grid Tiles has 1.4K ratings behind it against 176, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Grid Maker's written reviews are positive against 55% of Grid Tiles'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, Grid Tiles every 4 months. Both last shipped on October 9, 2026.
