# HuntLeague vs HuntShield

The clearest difference is monetization model: HuntLeague at free against HuntShield's free with in-app purchases. HuntLeague also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 8 days) and ratings volume (34 vs 2). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HuntLeague sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $14.99 per year and HuntShield sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
