Super Pipe Bird holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Super Pipe Bird has 252 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Super Pipe Bird's written reviews are positive against 71% of Nyan Flappy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Super Pipe Bird ships an update every 4 months, Nyan Flappy monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
