# Magic Water vs Sort Factory

The clearest difference is ads: Magic Water at none against Sort Factory's shown. Sort Factory's advantage is ratings volume (3.1K vs 4) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Magic Water sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Sort Factory sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sort Factory holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sort Factory has 3.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Magic Water ships an update every 3 weeks, Sort Factory every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 9, 2026.
