Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Train the Brain at none against WordBubbles!'s shown. WordBubbles!'s advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 126) and review sentiment (80% vs 57%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. WordBubbles! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Train the Brain sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Train the Brain holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WordBubbles! has 14K ratings behind it against 126, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of WordBubbles!'s written reviews are positive against 57% of Train the Brain's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

WordBubbles! ships an update every 2 months, Train the Brain every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
