ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Snacks Claw holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Amazing Claw Machine has 122 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of The Amazing Claw Machine's written reviews are positive against 50% of Snacks Claw's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

The Amazing Claw Machine ships an update every 5 months, Snacks Claw every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
