# Pixelicious vs Candy N Cookie

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pixelicious at 100% against Candy N Cookie's 75%. Pixelicious also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). Candy N Cookie's advantage is ratings volume (265 vs 6) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pixelicious sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Candy N Cookie sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Candy N Cookie holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Candy N Cookie has 265 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pixelicious's written reviews are positive against 75% of Candy N Cookie's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Pixelicious ships an update every 3 months, Candy N Cookie every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
