# Tico vs GLAZE BYTE

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GLAZE BYTE at 100% against Tico's 33%. GLAZE BYTE also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). Tico's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tico sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and GLAZE BYTE sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GLAZE BYTE holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GLAZE BYTE has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of Tico's written reviews are positive against 100% of GLAZE BYTE's.

Tico ships an update every 2 weeks, GLAZE BYTE every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
