You and one specific person have had this argument before. And you will have it again. Squabbler settles it out loud. One phone between you, both of you make your case, and a referee with a real voice scores both sides 0-100. Tap once and he reads the ruling back to you. Then it remembers. Tag who you argued with and a head-to-head win-loss record starts. Next time it comes up, hit RUN IT BACK and the ref opens the rematch already knowing who is ahead. HOW IT WORKS 1. One phone, two people, hit record. 2. Argue. Out loud, over each other, however you actually argue. 3. The ref listens, waits for a gap, and calls what he just heard. He never talks over you. 4. Need him to weigh in? Tap CUE THE REF and he jumps in at the next pause. 5. Heard enough from him? Tap again to shut him up. The argument keeps running. 6. Both sides get scored 0-100. Someone wins. 7. Tag your opponent. It goes on the record. PICK YOUR REF FAIR REF - calls it straight down the middle and crowns whoever actually won. He will tell you when you are both wrong. DRUNK REF - scores just as honestly, then goes off the rails roasting both sides. Read the room before you pick this one. ONE RECORD, TWO PHONES Beat someone and they can keep the receipt too. Tap SAVE TO BOTH PHONES, let them scan the code, and the same fight lands on their record from their side. Your running score against each other stays in sync on both phones. No accounts, no passwords. Only the result is shared, never the recording. THE SCORECARD Every verdict makes a card you can actually post. The score, the ref, the burn, and your record against them, baked into one image for the group chat. RIVALRIES - A running win-loss record with every person you tag - RUN IT BACK for an instant rematch, with the score already on the table - Your profile: overall record, win rate, current streak, biggest win - No accounts, no feed. Your record is yours. FOR THE PEOPLE YOU KEEP ARGUING WITH Partners. Roommates. Siblings. The group chat. The friend who has never once been wrong. Restaurant tables, car rides, 1am kitchens - anywhere the same disagreement keeps coming back. FREE AND PRO Free: 2 arguments a day, 2 and a half minutes each. Both refs included. Invite a friend and you both get more. Squabbler Pro: unlimited arguments every day, rounds up to 5 minutes instead of 2 and a half, the premium ref voice, and a second opinion - send any verdict to the other ref and get it judged again. $10.99 per month or $99.99 per year.

Verdict

Pixelable's advantage is ratings volume (3.4K vs 5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
