# Words Inside vs Connect Em All!

The clearest difference is ads: Words Inside at none against Connect Em All!'s shown. Words Inside also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 44%). Connect Em All!'s advantage is ratings volume (284 vs 3) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Words Inside sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Connect Em All! sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Connect Em All! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connect Em All! has 284 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Words Inside's written reviews are positive against 44% of Connect Em All!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
