# Puzzle Day vs Panda Power

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Puzzle Day at none against Panda Power's 10. Puzzle Day also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 60%). Panda Power's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 13.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Panda Power sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Puzzle Day asks for nothing beyond the download.

Panda Power holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11 and 14 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Puzzle Day's written reviews are positive against 60% of Panda Power's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. Both last shipped on August 14, 2026.
