# Gridplay vs AloneQuartet

The clearest difference is price: AloneQuartet at Free against Gridplay's $1.99. AloneQuartet also leads on rating (3.1 vs 2.4). Gridplay's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (77 vs 7). On review sentiment, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

AloneQuartet is free to download; Gridplay costs $1.99 up front. Gridplay sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and AloneQuartet sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

AloneQuartet holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gridplay has 77 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Gridplay's written reviews are positive against 33% of AloneQuartet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
