Verdict

The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Scritchy Scratchy holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scritchy Scratchy has 2.7K ratings behind it against 128, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Enigmo's written reviews are positive against 74% of Scritchy Scratchy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Enigmo ships an update every 2 months, Scritchy Scratchy every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
