Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Simon's Cat at every 4 weeks against Pop Cat's every 9 months. Simon's Cat also leads on ratings volume (31K vs 221) and rating (4.9 vs 4.5). Pop Cat's advantage is review sentiment (70% vs 62%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pop Cat sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Simon's Cat sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Simon's Cat holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simon's Cat has 31K ratings behind it against 221, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Pop Cat's written reviews are positive against 62% of Simon's Cat's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pop Cat ships an update every 9 months, Simon's Cat every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
