# Sudoku Puzzle vs Math Solver

The clearest difference is update cadence: Sudoku Puzzle at every 5 weeks against Math Solver's every 14 months. Sudoku Puzzle also leads on ratings volume (93K vs 3) and chart position (#134 vs unranked). Math Solver's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 51%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sudoku Puzzle sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Math Solver 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 — 4.9 for Sudoku Puzzle against 5.0 for Math Solver. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sudoku Puzzle has 93K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 51% of Sudoku Puzzle's written reviews are positive against 67% of Math Solver's.

Sudoku Puzzle ships an update every 5 weeks, Math Solver every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
