# BitTycoon vs Blockchain Explorer

The clearest difference is ratings volume: BitTycoon at 513 against Blockchain Explorer's 1. BitTycoon also leads on rating (4.2 vs 4.0) and chart position (#105 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BitTycoon sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Blockchain Explorer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BitTycoon holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BitTycoon has 513 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

BitTycoon ships an update monthly, Blockchain Explorer every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
