ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

KnuckDeWay holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lane Buster has 41 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of KnuckDeWay's written reviews are positive against 86% of Lane Buster's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

KnuckDeWay ships an update every 3 weeks, Lane Buster every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
