# Pixelogic vs Nonogram.com

The clearest difference is monetization model: Nonogram.com at free with in-app purchases against Pixelogic's subscription. Nonogram.com also leads on ratings volume (197K vs 951) and chart position (#97 vs unranked). Pixelogic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (70% vs 47%). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pixelogic sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Nonogram.com sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Pixelogic against 4.6 for Nonogram.com. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nonogram.com has 197K ratings behind it against 951, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 70% of Pixelogic's written reviews are positive against 47% of Nonogram.com's.

Pixelogic ships an update every 3 weeks, Nonogram.com every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
