# Royal Sort™ vs Sorting World

Royal Sort™ and Sorting World both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 87% of Sorting World's written reviews are positive against 44% of Royal Sort™'s. Royal Sort™'s advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 5.9K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Royal Sort™ sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Sorting World sells 19 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Royal Sort™ against 4.8 for Sorting World. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Royal Sort™ has 43K ratings behind it against 5.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 44% of Royal Sort™'s written reviews are positive against 87% of Sorting World's.

Royal Sort™ ships an update fortnightly, Sorting World every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
