Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Finger Balls! at none against Ball Action's shown. Finger Balls! also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly) and review sentiment (56% vs 39%). Ball Action's advantage is ratings volume (38K vs 539) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Ball Action holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ball Action has 38K ratings behind it against 539, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Finger Balls!'s written reviews are positive against 39% of Ball Action's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Finger Balls! ships an update every 4 days, Ball Action monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
