Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Rocket Hands at 80% against Booster Up!'s 19%. Rocket Hands also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 14) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). Booster Up!'s advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (17K vs 90). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Booster Up! sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Rocket Hands asks for nothing beyond the download.
Booster Up! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Booster Up! has 17K ratings behind it against 90, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Rocket Hands's written reviews are positive against 19% of Booster Up!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Rocket Hands ships an update every 6 months, Booster Up! weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
