# Bounce vs TENKYU

The clearest difference is ads: Bounce at none against TENKYU's shown. Bounce also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 13.0). TENKYU's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.1) and update cadence (monthly vs every 9 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bounce sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and TENKYU sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TENKYU holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TENKYU has 255K ratings behind it against 542, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Bounce's written reviews are positive against 59% of TENKYU's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Bounce ships an update every 9 months, TENKYU monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
