Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Sort Stack at none against SortPuz's shown. Sort Stack also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 46%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). SortPuz's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (48K vs 516). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sort Stack sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and SortPuz sells 20 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SortPuz holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SortPuz has 48K ratings behind it against 516, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Sort Stack's written reviews are positive against 46% of SortPuz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sort Stack ships an update monthly, SortPuz every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 11, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
