Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Creative Marx at none against NOGU's shown. Creative Marx also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). NOGU's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (1.3K vs 24). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for NOGU against 5.0 for Creative Marx. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NOGU has 1.3K ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 90% of NOGU's written reviews are positive against 100% of Creative Marx's.
NOGU ships an update every 3 weeks, Creative Marx every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on August 18, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
