# Boxed In vs Cuzzle

The clearest difference is rating: Cuzzle at 4.6 against Boxed In's 3.6. Cuzzle also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Boxed In's advantage is ratings volume (611 vs 31) and review sentiment (75% vs 61%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Boxed In sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Cuzzle sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cuzzle holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Boxed In has 611 ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Boxed In's written reviews are positive against 61% of Cuzzle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Boxed In ships an update every 2 months, Cuzzle weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
