# Speech Central vs TagTally

The clearest difference is rating: TagTally at 5.0 against Speech Central's 4.6. Speech Central's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Speech Central sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and TagTally sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TagTally holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speech Central has 1.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
