# Hydro vs BACDisplay

The clearest difference is rating: Hydro at 4.6 against BACDisplay's 4.0. Hydro also leads on ratings volume (7 vs 1). BACDisplay's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 65%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

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

Hydro holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hydro has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Hydro's written reviews are positive against 100% of BACDisplay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
