Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: PiKuBo at none against Numito's shown. On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Numito sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and PiKuBo sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Numito holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 69 and 95 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Numito's written reviews are positive against 87% of PiKuBo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Numito ships an update every 5 weeks, PiKuBo monthly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
