# 1 Meter vs circloO

The clearest difference is rating: circloO at 4.8 against 1 Meter's 3.9. circloO also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 28 months) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 87). 1 Meter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 10). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1 Meter sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and circloO sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

circloO holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: circloO has 2.4K ratings behind it against 87, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of 1 Meter's written reviews are positive against 89% of circloO's.

1 Meter ships an update every 28 months, circloO every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
