ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Fidget Spinner.io holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brutal.io has 5.1K ratings behind it against 108, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Brutal.io's written reviews are positive against 43% of Fidget Spinner.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brutal.io ships an update every 2 months, Fidget Spinner.io every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
