# Solitaire vs Solitaire

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Solitaire at 2.1M against Solitaire's 11K. Solitaire also leads on chart position (#12 vs unranked). Solitaire's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Solitaire sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Solitaire sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Solitaire against 4.7 for Solitaire. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Solitaire has 2.1M ratings behind it against 11K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 54% of Solitaire's written reviews are positive against 46% of Solitaire's.

Solitaire ships an update every 5 weeks, Solitaire every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
