# 表情符號王 vs Idiom Solitaire

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Idiom Solitaire at 3.3K against 表情符號王's 18. Idiom Solitaire also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). 表情符號王's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 表情符號王 sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Idiom Solitaire sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for 表情符號王 against 4.7 for Idiom Solitaire. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Idiom Solitaire has 3.3K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two.
