DailyGammon holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DailyGammon has 81 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of BGScore for Backgammon's written reviews are positive against 75% of DailyGammon's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BGScore for Backgammon ships an update every 62 months, DailyGammon every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
