# Flare vs Tribe

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Flare at 6.8K against Tribe's 7. Flare also leads on chart position (#113 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Flare against 5.0 for Tribe. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flare has 6.8K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 97% of Flare's written reviews are positive against 100% of Tribe's.
