# Redecor vs Design Makers

The clearest difference is ads: Redecor at none against Design Makers's shown. Redecor also leads on ratings volume (272K vs 1.1K) and chart position (#159 vs unranked). Design Makers's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 60%). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Redecor sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Design Makers sells 10 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 Redecor against 4.8 for Design Makers. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Redecor has 272K ratings behind it against 1.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of Redecor's written reviews are positive against 75% of Design Makers's.

Redecor ships an update every 10 days, Design Makers weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
