Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Loopdeck at none against Looper's shown. Loopdeck also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (67% vs 43%). Looper's advantage is ratings volume (4.9K vs 12) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Looper sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.19 per month and Loopdeck 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

Loopdeck holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Looper has 4.9K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 43% of Looper's written reviews are positive against 67% of Loopdeck's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Looper ships an update fortnightly, Loopdeck every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
