# PUSH & POP vs QB

The clearest difference is ads: QB at none against PUSH & POP's shown. QB also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). PUSH & POP's advantage is ratings volume (3.3K vs 293). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PUSH & POP sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and QB sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

QB holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PUSH & POP has 3.3K ratings behind it against 293, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 87% of PUSH & POP's written reviews are positive against 91% of QB's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
