Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cubes Up! at 100% against Card Wheels's 13%. Cubes Up! also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Card Wheels's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 3.3) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Card Wheels sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Cubes Up! asks for nothing beyond the download.
Card Wheels holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Card Wheels has 464 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of Card Wheels's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cubes Up!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Card Wheels ships an update every 9 days, Cubes Up! fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
