Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Gridiron Trivia at 4.8 against Blue 42+'s 4.2. Gridiron Trivia also leads on ratings volume (840 vs 15) and chart position (#62 vs unranked). Blue 42+'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 28) and review sentiment (75% vs 66%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support 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. Gridiron Trivia sells 28 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Blue 42+ asks for nothing beyond the download.
Gridiron Trivia holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gridiron Trivia has 840 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Blue 42+'s written reviews are positive against 66% of Gridiron Trivia'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 weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
