# iScoot vs BMX Playground

The clearest difference is rating: BMX Playground at 4.5 against iScoot's 3.5. BMX Playground also leads on ratings volume (3K vs 70) and chart position (#119 vs unranked). iScoot's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (38% vs 10%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iScoot sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and BMX Playground sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BMX Playground holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BMX Playground has 3K ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of iScoot's written reviews are positive against 10% of BMX Playground's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iScoot ships an update every 4 days, BMX Playground every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
