Verdict
ZigZag and Tower Stack both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Tower Stack's written reviews are positive against 64% of ZigZag's. Tower Stack also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months). ZigZag's advantage is ratings volume (32K vs 1). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ZigZag sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Tower Stack asks for nothing beyond the download.
ZigZag holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ZigZag has 32K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of ZigZag's written reviews are positive against 100% of Tower Stack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
ZigZag ships an update every 2 months, Tower Stack every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
