MindStep holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5.

Written reviews complicate that: 77% of MindStep's written reviews are positive against 94% of Star Vanisher...!!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MindStep ships an update every 51 months, Star Vanisher...!! every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
