# MX Player vs Multi

The clearest difference is rating: Multi at 5.0 against MX Player's 4.5. MX Player's advantage is ratings volume (4.3K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MX Player sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Multi sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Multi holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MX Player has 4.3K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
