Piggs! holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of Piggs!'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Tether Orbit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
