# 130 Point vs Shiny

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Shiny at 95% against 130 Point's 19%. Shiny also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 130 Point sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Shiny sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shiny holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shiny has 3.8K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 19% of 130 Point's written reviews are positive against 95% of Shiny's.

130 Point ships an update monthly, Shiny every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
