# Ignis vs Packed!?

The clearest difference is ads: Packed!? at none against Ignis's shown. Packed!? also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Ignis's advantage is ratings volume (7.9K vs 104). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ignis sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Packed!? sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Ignis against 4.6 for Packed!?. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ignis has 7.9K ratings behind it against 104, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of Ignis's written reviews are positive against 64% of Packed!?'s.

Ignis ships an update every 6 weeks, Packed!? every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
