# IPC360 vs HomeConnect

The clearest difference is rating: IPC360 at 4.3 against HomeConnect's 1.9. IPC360 also leads on review sentiment (31% vs 7%) and ratings volume (6.4K vs 80). HomeConnect's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPC360 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. HomeConnect asks for nothing beyond the download.

IPC360 holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPC360 has 6.4K ratings behind it against 80, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 31% of IPC360's written reviews are positive against 7% of HomeConnect's.
