# Magic Sort! vs Jigsaw Block Sort

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Magic Sort! at 668K against Jigsaw Block Sort's 5.4K. Magic Sort! also leads on chart position (#3 vs #50) and review sentiment (35% vs 27%). Jigsaw Block Sort's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Magic Sort! sells 20 one-off in-app purchases and Jigsaw Block Sort sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Jigsaw Block Sort holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Magic Sort! has 668K ratings behind it against 5.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of Magic Sort!'s written reviews are positive against 27% of Jigsaw Block Sort's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Magic Sort! ships an update weekly, Jigsaw Block Sort every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
