# Quantiloop vs Loopy Pro

The clearest difference is rating: Loopy Pro at 4.8 against Quantiloop's 3.0. Loopy Pro also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 56%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Quantiloop sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Loopy Pro sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Loopy Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Loopy Pro has 952 ratings behind it against 38, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 56% of Quantiloop's written reviews are positive against 95% of Loopy Pro's.

Quantiloop ships an update every 3 months, Loopy Pro every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
