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. Blindfall sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Frequency Missing asks for nothing beyond the download.
Frequency Missing holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Frequency Missing has 92 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Frequency Missing's written reviews are positive against 86% of Blindfall's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
