# Shutterbugs vs Math Fight

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shutterbugs at none against Math Fight's 1. Shutterbugs also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). Math Fight's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 6) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math Fight sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Shutterbugs asks for nothing beyond the download.

Math Fight holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Fight has 1.3K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Shutterbugs's written reviews are positive against 60% of Math Fight's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Shutterbugs ships an update every 3 weeks, Math Fight every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
