# Peggity vs Codebreaker*

The clearest difference is rating: Codebreaker* at 4.4 against Peggity's 3.7. Codebreaker* also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (72 vs 6). Peggity's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Peggity sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Codebreaker* asks for nothing beyond the download.

Codebreaker* holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Codebreaker* has 72 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Peggity's written reviews are positive against 68% of Codebreaker*'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Peggity ships an update every 3 weeks, Codebreaker* every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
