Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Switchy Sides at none against Devolver Tumble Time's shown. Switchy Sides also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 11.0). Devolver Tumble Time's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (920 vs 61). On price, review sentiment, 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. Switchy Sides sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Devolver Tumble Time sells 17 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Devolver Tumble Time holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Devolver Tumble Time has 920 ratings behind it against 61, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Switchy Sides's written reviews are positive against 56% of Devolver Tumble Time's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Switchy Sides ships an update every 5 weeks, Devolver Tumble Time fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
