Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Nonocross holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nonocross has 2.3K ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Nonocross's written reviews are positive against 45% of Ball Sort's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Nonocross ships an update every 2 months, Ball Sort every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
