# CodeSnack IDE vs Color Convert

CodeSnack IDE and Color Convert both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Color Convert's written reviews are positive against 68% of CodeSnack IDE's. CodeSnack IDE's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 11). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CodeSnack IDE sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Color Convert sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CodeSnack IDE has 1.6K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of CodeSnack IDE's written reviews are positive against 100% of Color Convert's.
