# SwitchedOn vs Brain Training

The clearest difference is ads: SwitchedOn at none against Brain Training's shown. SwitchedOn also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly) and ratings volume (336 vs 41). Brain Training's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 91%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SwitchedOn sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Brain Training sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for SwitchedOn against 4.8 for Brain Training. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SwitchedOn has 336 ratings behind it against 41, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 91% of SwitchedOn's written reviews are positive against 100% of Brain Training's.
