Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Cannon Attack at 4.5 against Antivirus's 3.7. Cannon Attack also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 25) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Antivirus's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (65% vs 32%). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Antivirus sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Cannon Attack sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cannon Attack holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cannon Attack has 14K ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Antivirus's written reviews are positive against 32% of Cannon Attack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Antivirus ships an update every 2 months, Cannon Attack every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 21, 2026.
