# Funky Maker vs ColorBox Mustard

The clearest difference is rating: ColorBox Mustard at 4.3 against Funky Maker's 3.7. ColorBox Mustard also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Funky Maker sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and ColorBox Mustard sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ColorBox Mustard holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 88 and 194 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Funky Maker's written reviews are positive against 63% of ColorBox Mustard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
