# Project Makeover vs Makeover Dream

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Project Makeover at 799K against Makeover Dream's 5.5K. Project Makeover also leads on chart position (#15 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Project Makeover sells 18 one-off in-app purchases and Makeover Dream sells 11 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 — 4.5 for Project Makeover against 4.6 for Makeover Dream. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Project Makeover has 799K ratings behind it against 5.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 46% of Project Makeover's written reviews are positive against 39% of Makeover Dream's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
