# iButton Sounds vs Woah

The clearest difference is rating: Woah at 4.6 against iButton Sounds's 2.8. Woah also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 22 months) and review sentiment (42% vs 25%). iButton Sounds's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0).
