# Free Hidden Objects vs Time Machine

The clearest difference is rating: Time Machine at 4.5 against Free Hidden Objects's 1.5. Time Machine also leads on ratings volume (4.5K vs 2). Free Hidden Objects's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Free Hidden Objects sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Time Machine sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Time Machine holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Time Machine has 4.5K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
