# Log Thrower vs Zipline Crowd

The clearest difference is rating: Log Thrower at 4.6 against Zipline Crowd's 3.3. Log Thrower also leads on ratings volume (39K vs 4). Zipline Crowd's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (33% vs 14%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Log Thrower sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Zipline Crowd asks for nothing beyond the download.

Log Thrower holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Log Thrower has 39K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Log Thrower's written reviews are positive against 33% of Zipline Crowd's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
