# WSTicK vs Sticksy

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WSTicK at 64% against Sticksy's 21%. WSTicK also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (9.4K vs 46). Sticksy's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WSTicK sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Sticksy sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WSTicK holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WSTicK has 9.4K ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two.
