# Differences vs Find the Differences

The clearest difference is rating: Find the Differences at 4.9 against Differences's 4.5. Find the Differences also leads on ratings volume (75K vs 28) and update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months). Differences's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 54%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Differences sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Find the Differences sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Find the Differences holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Find the Differences has 75K ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Differences's written reviews are positive against 54% of Find the Differences's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Differences ships an update every 5 months, Find the Differences monthly. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
