ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Chop Town holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chop Town has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Tap Jetpack's written reviews are positive against 50% of Chop Town's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tap Jetpack ships an update weekly, Chop Town every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
