# Retouch vs Photo Background Eraser

The clearest difference is rating: Retouch at 4.1 against Photo Background Eraser's 3.4. Photo Background Eraser's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (73% vs 52%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Retouch sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Photo Background Eraser asks for nothing beyond the download.

Retouch holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 18 and 25 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Retouch's written reviews are positive against 73% of Photo Background Eraser's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
