Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: A2D2 at 100% against Brickit's 54%. A2D2 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 23). Brickit's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.0) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Brickit holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brickit has 23K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Brickit's written reviews are positive against 100% of A2D2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brickit ships an update weekly, A2D2 every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
