# Flute Simulator PRO vs Violin Real

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Violin Real at 67% against Flute Simulator PRO's 11%. Violin Real also leads on rating (4.3 vs 1.4) and ratings volume (731 vs 25). Flute Simulator PRO's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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

Violin Real holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.4.
