# Collapse vs strata

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: strata at none against Collapse's 5. strata also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Collapse's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Collapse sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. strata asks for nothing beyond the download.

strata holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Collapse has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
