Balls go High holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Balls go High has 33K ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Ice Up's written reviews are positive against 32% of Balls go High's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Ice Up ships an update weekly, Balls go High every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 21, 2026.
