# House Stack vs Neon Splash

The clearest difference is ads: House Stack at none against Neon Splash's shown. House Stack also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 62%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Neon Splash's advantage is ratings volume (42K vs 221). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. House Stack sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Neon Splash sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 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 House Stack against 4.7 for Neon Splash. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Neon Splash has 42K ratings behind it against 221, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 75% of House Stack's written reviews are positive against 62% of Neon Splash's.

House Stack ships an update every 6 weeks, Neon Splash every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
