The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Meow Wolf at every 3 weeks against Pin Stadium's every 9 months. Meow Wolf also leads on ratings volume (1.8K vs 4) and review sentiment (82% vs 67%). Pin Stadium's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pin Stadium holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Meow Wolf has 1.8K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Pin Stadium's written reviews are positive against 82% of Meow Wolf's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pin Stadium ships an update every 9 months, Meow Wolf every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
