# Jumping Joe! vs Sausage Flip

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Sausage Flip at 141K against Jumping Joe!'s 62. Sausage Flip also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). Jumping Joe!'s advantage is review sentiment (95% vs 79%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Jumping Joe! sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Sausage Flip sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sausage Flip holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sausage Flip has 141K ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of Jumping Joe!'s written reviews are positive against 79% of Sausage Flip's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Jumping Joe! ships an update every 2 months, Sausage Flip monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
