# More Cakes! vs Donut Maker

The clearest difference is price: Donut Maker at Free against More Cakes!'s $1.99. Donut Maker also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). More Cakes!'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and chart position (#194 vs unranked). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Donut Maker is free to download; More Cakes! costs $1.99 up front. Donut Maker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. More Cakes! asks for nothing beyond the download.

Donut Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Donut Maker has 1.8K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of More Cakes!'s written reviews are positive against 81% of Donut Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

More Cakes! ships an update every 3 months, Donut Maker weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
