# Carrot. vs IGOTIN

Carrot. and IGOTIN both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 95% of Carrot.'s written reviews are positive against 54% of IGOTIN's. Carrot. also leads on chart position (#136 vs unranked). IGOTIN's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 319). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Carrot. sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and IGOTIN sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Carrot. against 4.7 for IGOTIN. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IGOTIN has 2.4K ratings behind it against 319, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 95% of Carrot.'s written reviews are positive against 54% of IGOTIN's.

Carrot. ships an update fortnightly, IGOTIN every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
