Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Greater at 5.0 against Mine Forest's 4.5. The Greater also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Mine Forest's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases 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
Both are free to download. The Greater sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Mine Forest sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
The Greater holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 8 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of The Greater's written reviews are positive against 80% of Mine Forest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
The Greater ships an update fortnightly, Mine Forest every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
