# Maya vs Differences

Maya and Differences both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of Maya's written reviews are positive against 50% of Differences's. Maya also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Differences's advantage is ratings volume (601K vs 1.9K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Maya sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Differences sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Maya against 4.6 for Differences. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Differences has 601K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 89% of Maya's written reviews are positive against 50% of Differences's.
