# Expense manager vs Simple Expense Tracker App

The clearest difference is rating: Expense manager at 4.6 against Simple Expense Tracker App's 2.5. Expense manager also leads on ratings volume (267 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). Simple Expense Tracker App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, 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.

Expense manager holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Expense manager has 267 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Expense manager's written reviews are positive against 86% of Simple Expense Tracker App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
