# Stroker vs Hanzicards

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Stroker at 100% against Hanzicards's 0%. Stroker also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 9). Hanzicards's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.5). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hanzicards sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Stroker asks for nothing beyond the download.

Hanzicards holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Stroker's written reviews are positive against 0% of Hanzicards's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
