# Amazing Grow vs Bug

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bug at none against Amazing Grow's 10. Bug also leads on ads (none vs shown). Amazing Grow's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Amazing Grow sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Bug asks for nothing beyond the download.

Amazing Grow ships an update every 3 weeks, Bug every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
