# פנגו vs פז"מ

The clearest difference is review sentiment: פז"מ at 79% against פנגו's 18%. פז"מ also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.6). פנגו's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 18) and ratings volume (3.2K vs 45). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. פז"מ sells 18 one-off in-app purchases. פנגו asks for nothing beyond the download.

פז"מ holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: פנגו has 3.2K ratings behind it against 45, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 18% of פנגו's written reviews are positive against 79% of פז"מ's.

פנגו ships an update fortnightly, פז"מ monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 4, 2026 and August 18, 2026 respectively.
