# Habit Tracker vs RoutineFlow

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Habit Tracker at 145K against RoutineFlow's 2.4K. Habit Tracker also leads on chart position (#133 vs unranked) and review sentiment (69% vs 60%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Habit Tracker sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and RoutineFlow sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Habit Tracker against 4.7 for RoutineFlow. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Habit Tracker has 145K ratings behind it against 2.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
