Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Bubblez at 4.3 against Balls's 4.0. Bubblez also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). Balls's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Bubblez sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Balls sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bubblez holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 95 and 43 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Bubblez's written reviews are positive against 49% of Balls's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bubblez ships an update every 4 months, Balls every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
