Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Walley at free with in-app purchases against Wallaroo's subscription. Walley also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 58%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Wallaroo's advantage is ratings volume (215 vs 5). On price, update cadence, 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. Wallaroo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Walley sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Walley holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wallaroo has 215 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 58% of Wallaroo's written reviews are positive against 88% of Walley's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
