# Nuts Factory vs Sort Jam

The clearest difference is rating: Nuts Factory at 4.8 against Sort Jam's 4.6. Sort Jam's advantage is ratings volume (24K vs 2.3K) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nuts Factory sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Sort Jam sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Nuts Factory holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sort Jam has 24K ratings behind it against 2.3K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 68% and 68% positive.

Nuts Factory ships an update every 3 weeks, Sort Jam every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
