ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Save! Hero Goalkeeper holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Save! Hero Goalkeeper has 1.2K ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Tiny Goalie's written reviews are positive against 30% of Save! Hero Goalkeeper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tiny Goalie ships an update every 2 weeks, Save! Hero Goalkeeper monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
