# Simulator X vs SandBox

The clearest difference is rating: SandBox at 4.6 against Simulator X's 3.0. SandBox also leads on ratings volume (46K vs 1). Simulator X's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). 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.

SandBox holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SandBox has 46K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of Simulator X's written reviews are positive against 37% of SandBox's.
