ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cover Orange 2 (Ad Supported) holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cover Orange 2 (Ad Supported) has 10K ratings behind it against 61, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Micro Battles 2's written reviews are positive against 73% of Cover Orange 2 (Ad Supported)'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Micro Battles 2 ships an update every 24 months, Cover Orange 2 (Ad Supported) every 16 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
