Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Clank! at every 2 weeks against Blue Block Premium's every 3 months. Clank! also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 16) and chart position (#36 vs unranked). Blue Block Premium's advantage is price ($4.99 vs $10.99) and review sentiment (83% vs 71%). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Blue Block Premium costs $4.99 and Clank! $10.99 up front. Blue Block Premium sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Clank! sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Clank! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clank! has 1.5K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Blue Block Premium's written reviews are positive against 71% of Clank!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Blue Block Premium ships an update every 3 months, Clank! every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
