# Antivirus vs Cannon Attack

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.

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.

Antivirus ships an update every 2 months, Cannon Attack every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
