# Polygonome vs Clockworks

The clearest difference is rating: Clockworks at 5.0 against Polygonome's 4.8. Polygonome's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.3 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Clockworks holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Polygonome has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
