# Basic Math vs Math Games

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Basic Math at none against Math Games's 7. Basic Math also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). Math Games's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 50). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math Games sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Basic Math asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Basic Math against 4.5 for Math Games. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Games has 1.6K ratings behind it against 50, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of Basic Math's written reviews are positive against 66% of Math Games's.
