# Bubble Loops vs Bubble Viking Pop

The clearest difference is rating: Bubble Viking Pop at 4.8 against Bubble Loops's 3.9. Bubble Viking Pop also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 26 months) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 70). Bubble Loops's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (75% vs 62%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bubble Loops sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Bubble Viking Pop sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bubble Viking Pop holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bubble Viking Pop has 2.8K ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Bubble Loops's written reviews are positive against 62% of Bubble Viking Pop's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Bubble Loops ships an update every 26 months, Bubble Viking Pop fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
