# Easy vs Puzzle Day

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Puzzle Day at none against Easy's 1. Puzzle Day also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (89% vs 71%). Easy's advantage is ratings volume (267 vs 11). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Easy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Puzzle Day asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Easy against 4.6 for Puzzle Day. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Easy has 267 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 71% of Easy's written reviews are positive against 89% of Puzzle Day's.

Easy ships an update fortnightly, Puzzle Day weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
