Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QUT at none against Bunpo's 10. Bunpo's advantage is ratings volume (18K vs 3) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement 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. Bunpo sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. QUT asks for nothing beyond the download.
Bunpo holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bunpo has 18K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of Bunpo's written reviews are positive against 59% of QUT's.
Bunpo ships an update every 9 days, QUT every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
