ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tall Grid Maker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grid has 798 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Grid's written reviews are positive against 80% of Tall Grid Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Grid ships an update every 3 weeks, Tall Grid Maker every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
