Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Parallax at 4.7 against MakeIt3D's 3.8. Parallax also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 20 months) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 9). MakeIt3D's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 39%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Parallax holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Parallax has 5.6K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of MakeIt3D's written reviews are positive against 39% of Parallax's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MakeIt3D ships an update every 20 months, Parallax every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
