# Idle Cosmo Maker vs Ever Beyond

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Idle Cosmo Maker at none against Ever Beyond's 5. Idle Cosmo Maker also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 33%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Ever Beyond's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (32 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ever Beyond sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Idle Cosmo Maker asks for nothing beyond the download.

Ever Beyond holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ever Beyond has 32 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Idle Cosmo Maker's written reviews are positive against 33% of Ever Beyond's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Idle Cosmo Maker ships an update every 2 weeks, Ever Beyond every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
