# My Tello vs Signtone

The clearest difference is rating: Signtone at 5.0 against My Tello's 4.3. Signtone also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). My Tello's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 1) and chart position (#134 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Signtone holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Tello has 1.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
