ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Candy Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Schoops has 34 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Candy Maker's written reviews are positive against 83% of Schoops's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Candy Maker ships an update every 4 months, Schoops daily. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
