# Poly Dating vs Kulmo

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Kulmo at 100% against Poly Dating's 28%. Kulmo also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and ads (none vs shown). Poly Dating's advantage is ratings volume (210 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Poly Dating sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Kulmo sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kulmo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Poly Dating has 210 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
