# Backtest vs GoCharting

The clearest difference is rating: GoCharting at 3.3 against Backtest's 1.0. GoCharting also leads on ratings volume (27 vs 4). Backtest's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (9.1 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GoCharting sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Backtest asks for nothing beyond the download.

GoCharting holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GoCharting has 27 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of Backtest's written reviews are positive against 32% of GoCharting's.
