# Bounce vs Rad Trails!

The clearest difference is rating: Rad Trails! at 4.6 against Bounce's 4.1. Rad Trails! also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 9 months). Bounce's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (63% vs 34%). On price, ratings volume, 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 Rad Trails! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rad Trails! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 542 and 629 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Bounce's written reviews are positive against 34% of Rad Trails!'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, Rad Trails! every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
