# Industries vs The Provider

The clearest difference is rating: The Provider at 5.0 against Industries's 3.2. The Provider also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 14) and ads (none vs shown). Industries's advantage is ratings volume (13 vs 2) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Industries sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. The Provider asks for nothing beyond the download.

The Provider holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Industries has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
