# Knock vs Raider

The clearest difference is price: Raider at Free against Knock's $0.99. Raider also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 28 months). Knock's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (180 vs 27). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Raider is free to download; Knock costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Knock holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Knock has 180 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Knock's written reviews are positive against 78% of Raider's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Knock ships an update every 28 months, Raider every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
