# SWITCH! vs Connection

The clearest difference is ads: SWITCH! at none against Connection's shown. SWITCH! also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 69%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). Connection's advantage is ratings volume (706 vs 15) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SWITCH! sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Connection sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Connection holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connection has 706 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of SWITCH!'s written reviews are positive against 69% of Connection's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
