ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pixel Pop! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pixel Pop! has 58 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Pixel Pop!'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Colony Jam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pixel Pop! ships an update every 2 weeks, Colony Jam every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
