# Pac.io vs FruitsEater

The clearest difference is review sentiment: FruitsEater at 100% against Pac.io's 54%. FruitsEater also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). Pac.io's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (342 vs 2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pac.io sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. FruitsEater asks for nothing beyond the download.

Pac.io holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pac.io has 342 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Pac.io's written reviews are positive against 100% of FruitsEater's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
