# BOOMTUNE vs Nothing X

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Nothing X at 72% against BOOMTUNE's 11%. Nothing X also leads on rating (4.7 vs 1.0) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months). BOOMTUNE's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nothing X sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. BOOMTUNE asks for nothing beyond the download.
