Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ねこのデザイナー at 5.0 against Miracle Merchant's 4.4. ねこのデザイナー also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.6). Miracle Merchant's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 5). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Miracle Merchant sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and ねこのデザイナー sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ねこのデザイナー holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Miracle Merchant has 1.7K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Miracle Merchant's written reviews are positive against 62% of ねこのデザイナー's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Miracle Merchant ships an update monthly, ねこのデザイナー every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
