Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Quickfire Interactive at 100% against Word Salad's 51%. Quickfire Interactive also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 8) and ads (none vs shown). Word Salad's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 2.7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 15 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Word Salad sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Quickfire Interactive asks for nothing beyond the download.
Word Salad holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Word Salad has 3.7K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Quickfire Interactive's written reviews are positive against 51% of Word Salad's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Quickfire Interactive ships an update every 15 months, Word Salad every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
