# High Hoops vs Ball Action

The clearest difference is ads: High Hoops at none against Ball Action's shown. High Hoops also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 39%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Ball Action's advantage is ratings volume (38K vs 808) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. High Hoops sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ball Action sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Ball Action holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ball Action has 38K ratings behind it against 808, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of High Hoops's written reviews are positive against 39% of Ball Action's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
