ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Help Them holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Help Them has 17K ratings behind it against 160, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Brain Teaser Guru's written reviews are positive against 35% of Help Them's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brain Teaser Guru ships an update every 11 days, Help Them every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 11, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
