# Bubble Mania™ vs Runway 3D

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Runway 3D at none against Bubble Mania™'s 10. Runway 3D also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). Bubble Mania™'s advantage is ratings volume (5.1K vs 4). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bubble Mania™ sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Runway 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.1 for Bubble Mania™ against 4.0 for Runway 3D. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bubble Mania™ has 5.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Bubble Mania™ ships an update every 4 weeks, Runway 3D fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
