Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Scoot Mag at 5.0 against 3D Skate Tricks's 3.5. Scoot Mag also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). 3D Skate Tricks's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Scoot Mag sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year and 3D Skate Tricks sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Scoot Mag holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Scoot Mag's written reviews are positive against 71% of 3D Skate Tricks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Scoot Mag ships an update every 5 months, 3D Skate Tricks every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
