# Boo! vs Shape Fold

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Boo! at 96% against Shape Fold's 50%. Boo! also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (199 vs 9). Shape Fold's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Boo! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Shape Fold sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Boo! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Boo! has 199 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two.
