# Ball Jump vs Pineapple Pen

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ball Jump at none against Pineapple Pen's 3. Ball Jump also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (94% vs 71%). Pineapple Pen's advantage is ratings volume (6K vs 113). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pineapple Pen sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Ball Jump asks for nothing beyond the download.

Ball Jump holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3.
