# Image Search vs Get Sauce

Image Search and Get Sauce both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 74% of Get Sauce's written reviews are positive against 41% of Image Search's. Get Sauce also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months) and device support (5 vs 3). Image Search's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 25).

Both are free to download. Image Search sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Get Sauce sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
