# Jake's Fireworks vs Save A Lot

The clearest difference is rating: Save A Lot at 4.8 against Jake's Fireworks's 3.3. Save A Lot also leads on ratings volume (27K vs 19) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). Jake's Fireworks's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Save A Lot holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Save A Lot has 27K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Jake's Fireworks's written reviews are positive against 47% of Save A Lot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Jake's Fireworks ships an update every 3 months, Save A Lot every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
