# Colour Crush vs Candy Friends™

The clearest difference is rating: Candy Friends™ at 4.7 against Colour Crush's 4.2. Candy Friends™ also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 5). Colour Crush's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 74%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Colour Crush sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Candy Friends™ sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Candy Friends™ holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Candy Friends™ has 1.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Colour Crush's written reviews are positive against 74% of Candy Friends™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Colour Crush ships an update every 11 days, Candy Friends™ every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
