# Physics Lab AR vs Physics Toolkit

Physics Lab AR and Physics Toolkit both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Physics Toolkit's written reviews are positive against 47% of Physics Lab AR's. Physics Toolkit also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 7) and iOS requirement (11.2 vs 15.0). Physics Lab AR's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 51). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Physics Lab AR sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month. Physics Toolkit asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Physics Lab AR against 4.6 for Physics Toolkit. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Physics Lab AR has 1.8K ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 47% of Physics Lab AR's written reviews are positive against 100% of Physics Toolkit's.
