Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Grumpy Bears at weekly against Major Mayhem's every 2 months. Major Mayhem's advantage is ratings volume (6.4K vs 348) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Major Mayhem sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Grumpy Bears sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Major Mayhem holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Major Mayhem has 6.4K ratings behind it against 348, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Major Mayhem's written reviews are positive against 83% of Grumpy Bears's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Major Mayhem ships an update every 2 months, Grumpy Bears weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
