Verdict
The clearest difference is price: B at Free against B.ROLL's $2.99. B also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly) and review sentiment (100% vs 91%). B.ROLL's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

B is free to download; B.ROLL costs $2.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
B.ROLL holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 33 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of B's written reviews are positive against 91% of B.ROLL's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
B ships an update every 3 days, B.ROLL fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
