# HISTORY Vault vs FramePerfect

The clearest difference is review sentiment: FramePerfect at 100% against HISTORY Vault's 29%. FramePerfect also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.9) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). HISTORY Vault's advantage is price (Free vs $0.99) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 8). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

HISTORY Vault is free to download; FramePerfect costs $0.99 up front. HISTORY Vault sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and FramePerfect sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FramePerfect holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HISTORY Vault has 1.1K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 29% of HISTORY Vault's written reviews are positive against 100% of FramePerfect's.
