# Cúla4 vs History Hit

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cúla4 at none against History Hit's 2. Cúla4 also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 86%). History Hit's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. History Hit sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Cúla4 asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Cúla4 against 4.5 for History Hit. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: History Hit has 1.2K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of Cúla4's written reviews are positive against 86% of History Hit's.
