Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Moby Move at 4.4 against Luas's 2.0. Moby Move also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 26 months) and ratings volume (54 vs 4). Luas's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Moby Move holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Moby Move has 54 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Luas's written reviews are positive against 30% of Moby Move's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Luas ships an update every 26 months, Moby Move every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
