# 猫眼 vs 摩天轮

The clearest difference is rating: 猫眼 at 4.7 against 摩天轮's 2.9. 猫眼 also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 58). 摩天轮's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

猫眼 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 猫眼 has 1.5K ratings behind it against 58, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of 猫眼's written reviews are positive against 56% of 摩天轮's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

猫眼 ships an update monthly, 摩天轮 weekly. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
