ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CloverPit holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CloverPit has 6.3K ratings behind it against 141, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of How Many Dudes?'s written reviews are positive against 78% of CloverPit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

How Many Dudes? ships an update daily, CloverPit every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
