# IdleOn vs Roll

The clearest difference is rating: Roll at 4.6 against IdleOn's 4.3. Roll also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15). IdleOn's advantage is ratings volume (2.6K vs 439). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IdleOn sells 50 one-off in-app purchases and Roll sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Roll holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IdleOn has 2.6K ratings behind it against 439, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 59% of IdleOn's written reviews are positive against 78% of Roll's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
