Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BVS Solitaire Collection at 78% against iTressette's 31%. BVS Solitaire Collection also leads on ratings volume (628 vs 10) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). iTressette's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and price ($2.99 vs $5.99). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iTressette holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BVS Solitaire Collection has 628 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of iTressette's written reviews are positive against 78% of BVS Solitaire Collection's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iTressette ships an update every 3 weeks, BVS Solitaire Collection weekly. Both last shipped on November 13, 2026.
