Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bumper.io at 4.6 against Catch the Melon's 3.9. Bumper.io also leads on ratings volume (196K vs 28) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Catch the Melon's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 38%) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bumper.io sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Catch the Melon asks for nothing beyond the download.
Bumper.io holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bumper.io has 196K ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Catch the Melon's written reviews are positive against 38% of Bumper.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Catch the Melon ships an update every 3 months, Bumper.io every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
