# Phoring vs GBPN

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GBPN at none against Phoring's 9. GBPN also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Phoring's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Phoring sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. GBPN asks for nothing beyond the download.

GBPN holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Phoring's written reviews are positive against 50% of GBPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
