# Stompers vs MoveSquad

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Stompers at 13K against MoveSquad's 7. Stompers also leads on chart position (#46 vs unranked). MoveSquad's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 3 days) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stompers sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and MoveSquad sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MoveSquad holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stompers has 13K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Stompers ships an update every 3 days, MoveSquad daily. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
