Verdict

The call

Tomato Evolution and Rescue Pals both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 91% of Tomato Evolution's written reviews are positive against 35% of Rescue Pals's. Rescue Pals's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ratings volume (565 vs 48). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Rescue Pals holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rescue Pals has 565 ratings behind it against 48, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Tomato Evolution's written reviews are positive against 35% of Rescue Pals's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tomato Evolution ships an update monthly, Rescue Pals fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
