# mo.co vs DREDGE

The clearest difference is rating: mo.co at 4.8 against DREDGE's 4.3. mo.co also leads on ratings volume (28K vs 1.1K). DREDGE's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#188 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. mo.co sells 22 one-off in-app purchases and DREDGE sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

mo.co holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: mo.co has 28K ratings behind it against 1.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 66% of mo.co's written reviews are positive against 60% of DREDGE's.

mo.co ships an update fortnightly, DREDGE every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
