# Trace Numbers vs Learning It

The clearest difference is monetization model: Learning It at free against Trace Numbers's free with in-app purchases. Learning It also leads on iOS requirement (10.3 vs 12.0). Trace Numbers's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 64). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Trace Numbers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Learning It sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Trace Numbers against 4.4 for Learning It. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Trace Numbers has 1.7K ratings behind it against 64, so its average is the more settled of the two.
