# Whooo? vs Squares*

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Squares* at none against Whooo?'s 10. Squares* also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 19%). Whooo?'s advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 19 months) and ratings volume (33K vs 4). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Whooo? sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Squares* asks for nothing beyond the download.

Whooo? holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Whooo? has 33K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of Whooo?'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Squares*'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Whooo? ships an update every 6 weeks, Squares* every 19 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
