# Counter Tally Count vs Tally

The clearest difference is rating: Counter Tally Count at 4.8 against Tally's 2.3. Counter Tally Count also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 3). Tally's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Counter Tally Count sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Tally asks for nothing beyond the download.

Counter Tally Count holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Counter Tally Count has 14K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Counter Tally Count's written reviews are positive against 100% of Tally's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
