Cannon It! holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cannon It! has 4.5K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Knock Hit's written reviews are positive against 42% of Cannon It!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Knock Hit ships an update every 34 months, Cannon It! monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
