# Join 4 in a row vs Bingo Dice

The clearest difference is rating: Bingo Dice at 4.9 against Join 4 in a row's 4.3. Bingo Dice also leads on ratings volume (16K vs 26) and chart position (#38 vs unranked). Join 4 in a row's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bingo Dice sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Join 4 in a row asks for nothing beyond the download.

Bingo Dice holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bingo Dice has 16K ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Join 4 in a row's written reviews are positive against 46% of Bingo Dice's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Join 4 in a row ships an update every 3 weeks, Bingo Dice every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
