Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Flip Dunk at 4.6 against Touchgrind BMX's 3.8. Flip Dunk also leads on ratings volume (336K vs 683) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). Touchgrind BMX's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (60% vs 46%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Touchgrind BMX sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Flip Dunk sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Flip Dunk holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flip Dunk has 336K ratings behind it against 683, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Touchgrind BMX's written reviews are positive against 46% of Flip Dunk's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Touchgrind BMX ships an update every 6 months, Flip Dunk every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 2, 2026.
