# Transformers vs Transform Master

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Transform Master at none against Transformers's 9. Transform Master also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (12.5 vs 15.0). Transformers's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (68% vs 52%). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Transformers sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Transform Master asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Transformers against 4.6 for Transform Master. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Transformers has 35K ratings behind it against 4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 68% of Transformers's written reviews are positive against 52% of Transform Master's.
