# Cribbage Pro vs Nobs Cribbage

Cribbage Pro and Nobs Cribbage both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Nobs Cribbage's written reviews are positive against 59% of Cribbage Pro's. Nobs Cribbage also leads on ads (none vs shown). Cribbage Pro's advantage is ratings volume (60K vs 16). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cribbage Pro sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Nobs Cribbage sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 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 Cribbage Pro against 4.7 for Nobs Cribbage. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cribbage Pro has 60K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 59% of Cribbage Pro's written reviews are positive against 100% of Nobs Cribbage's.

Cribbage Pro ships an update fortnightly, Nobs Cribbage every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
