# Logic Dots 2 vs Axon

The clearest difference is rating: Logic Dots 2 at 4.5 against Axon's 3.7. Logic Dots 2 also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (6.7K vs 56). Axon's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Logic Dots 2 sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Axon sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Logic Dots 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Logic Dots 2 has 6.7K ratings behind it against 56, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Logic Dots 2's written reviews are positive against 59% of Axon's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Logic Dots 2 ships an update every 5 weeks, Axon fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
