# recteq vs Pitts & Spitts

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pitts & Spitts at 100% against recteq's 30%. Pitts & Spitts also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). recteq's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (25K vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

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

recteq holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: recteq has 25K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of recteq's written reviews are positive against 100% of Pitts & Spitts's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
