ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Buttons and Scissors holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Buttons and Scissors has 1.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Buttons and Scissors's written reviews are positive against 100% of Ten Buttons's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Buttons and Scissors ships an update every 12 months, Ten Buttons every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
