# Virtual Beggar vs Infinite Growth

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Infinite Growth at none against Virtual Beggar's 11. Infinite Growth also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 77%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). Virtual Beggar's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (9.2K vs 517). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Virtual Beggar sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Infinite Growth asks for nothing beyond the download.

Virtual Beggar holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Virtual Beggar has 9.2K ratings behind it against 517, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Virtual Beggar's written reviews are positive against 89% of Infinite Growth's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Virtual Beggar ships an update every 5 weeks, Infinite Growth every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
