# Villo vs Dott

The clearest difference is rating: Dott at 4.8 against Villo's 2.0. Dott also leads on review sentiment (30% vs 0%) and ratings volume (9.3K vs 4). Villo'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.

Dott holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dott has 9.3K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of Villo's written reviews are positive against 30% of Dott's.
