# Baseball Scoreboard + vs Backside Stats

The clearest difference is update cadence: Baseball Scoreboard + at every 9 days against Backside Stats's monthly. Baseball Scoreboard + also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.1). Backside Stats's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (76 vs 21). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Baseball Scoreboard + sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Backside Stats sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $49.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
