Verdict
Font Maker and Stick Animator both sit at 4.1 stars, but that hides the real split: 65% of Stick Animator's written reviews are positive against 28% of Font Maker's. Stick Animator also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Font Maker sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Stick Animator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Font Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.1K and 983 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Font Maker's written reviews are positive against 65% of Stick Animator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Font Maker ships an update monthly, Stick Animator fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 13, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
