Verdict

The call

Zara Home and IKEA both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 53% of IKEA's written reviews are positive against 32% of Zara Home's. IKEA also leads on ratings volume (151K vs 15K) and chart position (#75 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Zara Home against 4.8 for IKEA. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IKEA has 151K ratings behind it against 15K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 32% of Zara Home's written reviews are positive against 53% of IKEA's.

Zara Home ships an update weekly, IKEA fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
