# uBudget vs Envelope Tracker

The clearest difference is ads: Envelope Tracker at none against uBudget's shown. Envelope Tracker also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). uBudget's advantage is ratings volume (16 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Envelope Tracker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: uBudget has 16 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
