Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: BiggerCity at 4.5 against Tattd's 3.4. BiggerCity also leads on ratings volume (6.9K vs 46). Tattd's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BiggerCity sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Tattd asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

BiggerCity holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BiggerCity has 6.9K ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of BiggerCity's written reviews are positive against 57% of Tattd's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

BiggerCity ships an update every 3 weeks, Tattd every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
