Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Cuddeback at 4.5 against MN DNR Licensing's 3.1. Cuddeback also leads on ratings volume (3.4K vs 52) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 weeks). MN DNR Licensing's advantage is review sentiment (46% vs 32%) and chart position (#100 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Cuddeback holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cuddeback has 3.4K ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Cuddeback's written reviews are positive against 46% of MN DNR Licensing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Cuddeback ships an update every 8 days, MN DNR Licensing every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
