# FolkTv vs Sci

The clearest difference is rating: Sci at 4.6 against FolkTv's 2.5. Sci also leads on ratings volume (45 vs 13). FolkTv's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sci sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. FolkTv asks for nothing beyond the download.

Sci holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 45 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of FolkTv's written reviews are positive against 0% of Sci's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
