# LīnArt (LineArt) vs Particle Simulation

The clearest difference is ads: Particle Simulation at none against LīnArt (LineArt)'s shown. Particle Simulation also leads on ratings volume (46 vs 3) and update cadence (every 7 months vs every 19 months). LīnArt (LineArt)'s advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 25%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LīnArt (LineArt) sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Particle Simulation sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
