ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Big Button Box 2 Lite holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Big Button Box 2 Lite has 239 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Big Button Box 2 Lite's written reviews are positive against 75% of Honker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Big Button Box 2 Lite ships an update every 9 months, Honker every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
