# Pace vs COA Teams

The clearest difference is monetization model: Pace at free with in-app purchases against COA Teams's subscription. Pace also leads on ratings volume (386 vs 6) and device support (3 vs 1). COA Teams's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 75%). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pace sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and COA Teams sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Pace against 4.8 for COA Teams. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pace has 386 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 75% of Pace's written reviews are positive against 100% of COA Teams's.

Pace ships an update every 6 weeks, COA Teams fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
