ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Junkyard Keeper holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Junkyard Keeper has 43K ratings behind it against 7.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Make It Fly!'s written reviews are positive against 29% of Junkyard Keeper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Make It Fly! ships an update every 2 months, Junkyard Keeper monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
