# Category Sort vs Wordington Solitaire

Category Sort and Wordington Solitaire both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 68% of Wordington Solitaire's written reviews are positive against 31% of Category Sort's. Wordington Solitaire also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). Category Sort's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 1.9K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Category Sort sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Wordington Solitaire sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Category Sort holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Category Sort has 13K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Category Sort's written reviews are positive against 68% of Wordington Solitaire's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Category Sort ships an update every 2 weeks, Wordington Solitaire every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
