# CoverMat vs Glimpsy

CoverMat and Glimpsy both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 97% of Glimpsy's written reviews are positive against 50% of CoverMat's. Glimpsy also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 1). CoverMat's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.5). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Glimpsy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. CoverMat asks for nothing beyond the download.

CoverMat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Glimpsy has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of CoverMat's written reviews are positive against 97% of Glimpsy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
