# Sofa Time vs StreamySync

The clearest difference is ads: Sofa Time at none against StreamySync's shown. Sofa Time also leads on ratings volume (2.7K vs 1). StreamySync's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sofa Time sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.29 per month and StreamySync sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

StreamySync holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sofa Time has 2.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
