Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Booeys at Free against ColorFold's $0.99. Booeys also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 46%). ColorFold's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months) and rating (4.3 vs 3.9). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Booeys is free to download; ColorFold costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ColorFold holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ColorFold has 183 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Booeys's written reviews are positive against 46% of ColorFold's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Booeys ships an update every 9 months, ColorFold every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
