ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mine Sweeper MONO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mine Field has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Mine Sweeper MONO's written reviews are positive against 100% of Mine Field's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Mine Sweeper MONO ships an update every 5 months, Mine Field every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
