# StarFly vs Idle Push Up

The clearest difference is rating: Idle Push Up at 4.7 against StarFly's 4.1. Idle Push Up also leads on ratings volume (7.4K vs 11) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). StarFly's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.1 vs 12.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StarFly sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Idle Push Up sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Idle Push Up holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Idle Push Up has 7.4K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of StarFly's written reviews are positive against 67% of Idle Push Up's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

StarFly ships an update monthly, Idle Push Up fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
