# The Cupboard vs POPFLEX

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: POPFLEX at none against The Cupboard's 6. POPFLEX also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 68%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). The Cupboard's advantage is chart position (#148 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The Cupboard sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. POPFLEX asks for nothing beyond the download.

POPFLEX holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: POPFLEX has 3.4K ratings behind it against 218, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of The Cupboard's written reviews are positive against 95% of POPFLEX's.

The Cupboard ships an update fortnightly, POPFLEX every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
