Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Brain points at none against Skillz's 4. Brain points also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 53%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). Skillz's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 19 months). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Skillz sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Brain points asks for nothing beyond the download.
Skillz holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 48 and 57 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Brain points's written reviews are positive against 53% of Skillz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Brain points ships an update every 19 months, Skillz every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
