# Stellar Tour vs Telescopius

The clearest difference is rating: Stellar Tour at 4.7 against Telescopius's 3.6. Stellar Tour also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 54%) and ratings volume (1.7K vs 8). Telescopius's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stellar Tour sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Telescopius asks for nothing beyond the download.

Stellar Tour holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stellar Tour has 1.7K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 84% of Stellar Tour's written reviews are positive against 54% of Telescopius's.
